Avid Joins Roybal School of Film and Television Production Magnet - Seite 3

Avid for Creative Community Growth
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of film and video editors will grow 12 percent between 2021 to 2031, much faster than the average for all occupations. In addition to collaborating with the Roybal fund, Avid runs several initiatives in partnership with its customers to enable more people to enter media production professions. Among these are the Media Composer for Students program, bringing the full-powered editing software to all college/post-secondary students for free; the Avid Learning Collective which gifts tools, training and certification to not-for-profit educational organizations; and the global Avid Community Association, where over 40,000 people at all levels of experience, including students, collaborate on shaping the future of media.
