Our licensing options offer your college several ways to distribute programs locally. Since distribution options vary from course to course, depending on what rights are available, refer to the individual course listings and the rights chart for details. The most common way that our programs reach students is by local television station broadcast. Stations record the programs off our satellite feed and work with the college to establish a broadcast schedule.
Some stations require colleges to underwrite the costs of local broadcast transmission.
Many cable systems carry public television stations that broadcast courses. Each course listing outlines full use and distribution rights. Cable companies usually require that you provide tapes in a specific format. Many courses may be distributed on local non-commercial cable without an accompanying public television broadcast.
