Why Become a Broadcasting Mentor

Got some industry wisdom you're dying to impart? Take all that knowledge you learned in broadcasting school and use it to help an eager young radio buff get their start. For only one hour a week, you could make extra money, have a willing companion and assistant, and help improve the face of broadcasting future.

Becoming a broadcasting mentor is a great way to pad your bank account while making a huge difference in someone's life. Everyone who's been there knows that all internships are not created equal, and a quality broadcasting mentor is often the breakthrough that leads to lifetime dedication instead of dispirited dejection. A hands-on experience to supplement broadcasting school is often the true litmus test for those trying out their professed dream job.

By becoming a broadcasting mentor, you will be affiliated with a top-notch core of seasoned professionals like yourself. We pre-screen all of our mentors to make sure our broadcasting school students only learn from the best, so qualifying as an NBTN mentor is guaranteed to give you some professional prestige and maybe even introduce you to some networking opportunities.

Also, choosing to be an NBTN broadcasting mentor helps you through the harrowing work of choosing something you probably need anyway-an assistant-without all the hassle of finding one. We interview, pre-screen, and handpick the best and the brightest, so that by the time they get to you, only a casual conversation to prove compatibility is needed. No need to interview all the many broadcasting school hopefuls barraging you with resumes!

NBTN also assumes all the liability for the arrangement, so your station is not at risk if an incident occurs or something doesn't work out. It is an at-will mentorship, so you can choose to terminate the arrangement at any time. There's really no risk and quite a bit of reward involved.

All in all, becoming an NBTN mentor gives you a chance to fill a professional need, earn extra money, and provide an unforgettable service to a bright-eyed young learner fresh out of broadcasting school and looking to learn the ropes.

When you are just entering into a vocation, the people who help you get that first break are people you never forget. The students you mentor will always thank you and who knows- it may be in an acceptance speech. Find out more about becoming a broadcasting mentor right here at www.learn-by-doing.com.
