Courses

The Peoples Channel offers a variety of courses and certification. All courses have a one time fee in order to cover the cost of the instructor's time. If you cannot pay for a course, TPC offers a variety of options. We will not turn anyone away due to economic reasons.

To ensure participation, all courses must be paid in full in advance
or Sweat Equity hours completed to enroll.

*If an individual wishes to take a course outside of the times listed, or wants personal instruction, the fee for that course will rise in order to pay for the instructors' time. Please ask a staff member if you are interested in taking an individual course.

Sweat Equity :
The Peoples Channel will never turn away anyone based on economic factors. If you cannot pay for a course or fee, TPC offers a Sweat Equity program equated to $10 an hour. The Sweat Equity program allows members to volunteer their time for TPC instead of paying for a course or fee. If a member wishes to volunteer rather than pay part, or all of the fee, they must meet their committed hours before taking the course. If only submitting content for cablecast, they must meet their committed hours or pay the membership fee before submitting programming.
Any of our staff will be happy to answer any questions you have about this program.
