ICTN offers internships for college students and recent college graduates.
Launched in 1981, the ICTN College Internship Program has successfully trained college-level students in television production. Students gain extensive hands-on experience with all aspects of producing a broadcast program. Interns work with ICTN staff who produce regularly scheduled programs, along with video releases on YouTube and other Social Media platforms.
Interns start with simpler productions, such as studio programs and remote public meetings. They are encouraged to advance into other areas, including operating ENG equipment, lighting, and editing. Successful interns, in the past, have shot stories with reporters, directed remote productions, and produced short specials.
