Reporting for Your Organization
This course is for representatives from community organizations to learn how to use the “News” feature on the KONZ website. The three-hour training session covers step-by-step directions on how to write your information and publish it using the website’s program, WordPress.
I Want to DJ a Radio Show
KONZ wants to feature an eclectic mix of adventurous music shows produced by knowledgeable and passionate DJs. Throughout the week we want listeners to hear everything from world music to jazz, classic blues, old-time country, bluegrass & folk recordings to the latest from the local music scene and independent musicians.
People who are interested in hosting music shows or public affairs programs attend a general orientation session followed by one-on-one training regarding the process we will use to help you develop a program proposal, plan your weekly content and help you become an award-winning DJ.
