Monrovia Film & Broadcasting Academy

 

An Adult Education/ROP & Community Media of the Foothills Collaboration

 
 

The Monrovia Community Adult School in conjunction with Community Media of the Foothills/KGEM TV Studio is pleased to announce the expansion of our partnership.  The program, offering multiple video, film, and television courses during the Winter/Spring Semester, has been renamed the Monrovia Film and Broadcasting Academy. Our goal is to offer a curriculum that continuously grows to meet the diverse needs of enrolled students.  Some classes are offered as single-interest subjects while others are considered core curriculum that will be built upon in the following semester(s) with more advanced courses leading to internal and/or industry-standard certification.
