Through the summit we will showcase the transformation of students, instructors and mentors into a design team to publish and distribute an over-the-top system network www.brownbagtv.org. (BBTV) that will showcase digital media pedagogy to prospective talent evaluators searching for skilled workers for workforce 2025.

The output(s) will result in student generated content that can measure the students capability to achieve IMDB credits, leveraged portfolio, and tech-creative certifications to compete for internship/apprenticeships inside of the partner network in Silicon Beach and beyond.

Dakar’s broadcast will relate to Los Angeles Community College Students in a cultural context that speaks to their ambitions to showcase their voice. We offer Industry partners the opportunity to share their corporate citizenship to learners 16 and beyond, and to build a bridge to the creative-tech economy in Silicon Beach and beyond. https://www.kcet.org/shows/socal-connected/the-rise-of-silicon-beach .

Connect industry with community college students to prepare students to meet rapidly changing industry needs and propel them into high education and workforce placement. Tectonic shifts are happening in media, entertainment and technology.

The traditional structures in which entertainment has been created and distributed are crumbling while new, rapidly changing structures are taking their place - or sharing newly created space -while media and technology are combining to create new solutions to non entertainment problems.

The speed in which these changes are occurring make it challenging for students to prepare for careers and for industry to find job-ready applicants when new needs emerge. By bringing students to industry, the student can received relevant insight and training while industry increases their pool of job ready applicants.
