| Any incorporated organization (including business or a department of an institution) that is based in Siskiyou County or whose service area includes Siskiyou County is eligible to become an Organizational Producer. Organizations with which MCTV 15 is unfamiliar may be asked to show formal proof of incorporation before becoming Organizational producers. As with Individual Producer, anyone interested in becoming a producer of MCTV 15 is strongly encouraged to attend one of our free monthly orientations before joining.
MCTV 15 provides organizational Pproducers as a way for organizations of all kinds to take advantage of our video and computer training and access services, and we welcome their formal affiliation with us in this way. Certain benefits only apply to organizational producers of MCTV 15. As a practical matter, many individuals also find it advantageous to have organizations with which they are associated become producers of MCTV 15. In some cases, the organization will pay for their producer. In any event the producer fee for Siskiyou County residents is lower for individuals joining as organizational representatives, and non-residents are able to become producers so long as they are taking classes and doing productions on behalf of an organizational producer.
