This is a partnership between the MBA and the University of Missouri’s Reynolds Journalism Institute. The program places high-level students in stations to work on multimedia, analytics and social media. The goal is to establish relationships that could lead to future hires for stations. Plus, the stations may learn new skills to expand their content reach. The students live in your market and work for your station for one week during their winter break. The MBA covers the costs for MO-PEP participating stations. Five MBA stations are selected by RJI each year. Selected stations will be notified mid-late Fall. If you are interested in having a digital ambassador work with your newsroom, please reach out to Elizabeth Stephens at stephensec@missouri.edu.
