After proving your residency, there are four steps you must go through before being able to use the facilities. They are as follows:
1. Register for and take an Orientation Workshop.
2. CERTIFICATION: complete a training workshop and become certified in whichever area of the facilities you wish to use.*
3. Complete a PRODUCER'S WORKSHOP.
4. SET UP A PROJECT: complete a Production Points: Single Form regarding the program you plan to produce using MNN’s production facilities.
*Producers who can demonstrate proficiency in the use of editing facilities or field production equipment may bypass the editing or camcorder classes by making an appointment with the Director of Production or the Education Coordinator for testing out of a class. Anyone interested in using MNN's studios, regardless of prior experience, must take MNN's studio workshops.
