Career & Conversation Student Broadcasting Station

Help me give my students a Podcast Station to enhance their communication and public speaking skills. Launching a Career & Conversation Podcast is a great way to give them hands-on experience and a place to be heard.

My Project

We would like to request your generous sponsorship for the launch of a Career and Conversation Podcast for the J4NG Delta Employability Class. Your support will enable students to participate in a safe space where they can express themselves, as well as improve their social-emotional learning and communication skills. The podcast will feature interviews with industry experts, which will help the students gain insight into various career paths and explore cross-curricular interests.

Our objective is to engage students in podcasting and broadcasting projects that will enhance their listening and comprehension skills, as well as their digital and technology literacy and media skills.

This skill set will be valuable in their future academic and career pursuits. We believe that your contribution will make a significant impact on the lives of our students, and we are grateful for your consideration in supporting our cause. Thank you.
