Volunteers
Volunteer opportunities at KECT include crewing on a staff production, helping with office work, and crewing for an access show. All Volunteer opportunities are negotiated on a case by case basis. You may qualify for credit to help offset your cost of producing or renting equipment.

How to Get Involved
Production volunteers on staff and access shows need to complete the studio production workshop. For volunteers with prior television production experience, we offer reorientations in which the Training Coordinator explains and demonstrates KECT's equipment and procedures. The cost of the re-orientation is $30 per hour, and it usually takes about 1-2 hours. At the discretion of the Training Coordinator, completion of the reorientation is equal to that of the 5-week studio production course.

What About Internships?
KECT  welcomes interns. Students have been pleased with the variety of experience and duties they get while interning at KECT . Since we are a small station with limited staff we rely on interns to help fill the production gaps. These include editing, on-camera reporting, news writing, web production, marketing, ENG (Remote Camcorder coverage), and computer graphics work. If you are a student, or if you just want to learn about television and have some previous experience, review the KECT Internships that are available to you.
