NABFEME PREP

Professional-Realistic-Educational-Programming

NABFEME PREP , a new program being presented by the National Association of Black Female Executives in Music & Entertainment, Inc.,is a voluntary partnership between entertainment industry professionals, the entertainment business community and other corporate institutions to bring accomplished executives to the classroom at participating learning institutions. Participating executives, known as NABFEME VPs or NABFEMEVisiting Professionals,will visit the classroom and teach or lecture in courses that correspond to their particular sector of the industry and/or work experience. They also participate in other NABFEME related activities such as networking sessions, workshops and mock job interviews.

The mission of NABFEME Prep is to share learning experiences with young people while cultivating new leaders and inspiring academic achievement through committed involvement and professional excellence.

NABFEME PREP

• Exposes students to working professionals in various fields of entertainment and through that direct contact the program familiarizes students with the demands and expectations of those particular fields.
• Prepares students to become the sophisticated and well-prepared employees that the entertainment business community and entertainment companies are seeking.

• Provides for professionals and corporations, who are interested in giving back to the community, an opportunity to help ambitious African-American students achieve their goals.
