of the greater Charleston area to gain experience and develop skills necessary
for careers in broadcasting.  From July 23, 2010 through July 22, 2011,
WYBB and WCOO hosted 7 interns.  All 7 interns gained experience in on-air
broadcasting, production and promotions, working closely with
the Program and Promotions Directors.

i.  Members of the WYBB and WCOO on-air staff hosted and trained
students from James Island High School of Charleston, SC during a job shadowing
program conducted in November 2010.  Students were taught about careers in
broadcasting, including on-air, promotions, sales and programming.

ii.  Members of the WYBB and WCOO programming and promotion
staff met with students and faculty from Trident Technical College, Charleston, SC
during September 2010 to discuss the radio broadcasting industry and
career opportunities in the industry.

iii.  The Operations Manager for WYBB and WCOO conducted two lectures
with the music business program at The College of Charleston. 
The lectures include information on radio and broadcasting employment opportunities,
as well as information on related career fields such as venue management,
band promotion, publicity and representation.

(c)     Initiative:                Co-sponsor Job Fair

WYBB and WCOO co-sponsored a job fair in Charleston, SC with Goodwill Industries
of South Carolina on March 31, 2011 through their job community program. 
The station employment unit has a long-standing relationship with Goodwill Industries. 
WYBB and WCOO broadcast live from the event and displayed materials regarding
internship opportunities at WYBB and WCOO and in the radio broadcast field. 
The station employment unit began promoting this event two weeks in advance and
promoted jobs in broadcasting as well as opportunities available with other
employers at the fair. 
The Operations Manager for WYBB and WCOO met with the Goodwill account
executive and Low Country Goodwill executive director to help plan the job fair.
