NP MTC (NPMTC)

The digital media video production training center is at The Skanner Newsgroup's North Portland offices.

The center was conceived to address the lack of access to video equipment and training opportunities in North and Northeast Portland neighborhoods and will help to balance the disparities found in every African American community in the United States.
The center's founders hope that the technology training it will provide can increase participants' earning potential, provide a voice for North and Northeast Portland and instill a sense of unity in the community.

The resulting productions will be available for use on PCM and community access TV channels throughout the area, as well as on The Skanner Newsgroup's Web site.
