This respected organization is at a moment of transformation as we are changing our name and our conference schedule in 2024.  

We're taking a broader look at audience development through the lens of local station research. 

Classical KING-FM just completed a study with WRTI, WQXR and KUCO of people of color with the goal of making classical radio more inviting to multicultural audiences. On Thursday, April 27, 2023 the PRPD Classical Format Group was joined by Brenda Barnes, CEO of Classical KING and Bill Johnson, GM of WRTI to discuss this unique study and its findings.

PRPD’s new dues structure includes 10 tiers. Members will be placed into tiers based on their NFFS for CPB qualified stations or their prior year’s budget for institutions, organizations, and non-CPB qualified stations.

In the fall of 2022, the PRPD Board of Directors adopted a new strategic plan that lays out a path for this respected organization to help us thrive long into the future. Since the plan was adopted, things have been moving forward behind the scenes and now it's time to introduce this plan to the world. There are some exciting new developments you'll want to know about. Watch this webinar and read through the full plan to learn about the pillars of the strategic plan and what it means for YOU!

PRPD announces the second Digital Content Workshop for Spring 2023, to be held virtually. PRPD will continue to work with Trainers Tamar Charney and Briana O'Higgins. 

This workshop is designed for people who are ready to go from “radio station” whose focus is traditional, terrestrial broadcast to “media organization” that also serves significant audiences on digital platforms. Stations are encouraged to send your content and/or programming leadership team as well as any staff members who are key to the daily digital workflow and oversee the creation and/or management of content on the station’s digital channels.

PRPD and Greater Public teamed up in February for our second Audience Development Summit. The two-day virtual event was designed for senior organizational, content and development leaders who are ready to expand their audiences.

Bringing together public media leadership, development, marketing, and content professionals to connect with and serve new audiences.
 

Thanks to generous support from CPB, PRPD is proud to present the virtual PRCC Summit, an opportunity for you to engage in discussions about some of the themes from the 2022 Public Radio Content Conference. 

Join your colleagues at this year's Public Radio Content Conference!
