Now in its 19th year, the experience pairs women working in radio with female professionals who are recognized leaders from all aspects of the broadcasting industry.
The 2020 mentoring program is sponsored by media workflow solutions provider vCreative.
Four candidates will be selected for the 2020 program. Women with a minimum of five years of radio experience, and currently working in sales, marketing, programming, digital and /or engineering, are encouraged to review mentee criteria and instructions on how to apply.

Serving as Mentoring Committee Chair is Entercom VP/National Agency Partnerships Lindsay Adams (née Cerajewski). She is a former MIW Mentee.
“This program truly does propel the careers of women forward in our industry,” says Adams. “It is rewarding to watch our mentees grow professionally throughout the year.”
The MIW Group Mentoring Program is named in the memory of Mildred Carter, who, along with her husband, Andrew “Skip” Carter, founded the first African American owned radio station in the U.S. in 1950, when they launched KPRS-AM in Kansas City. Mrs. Carter ran the Carter Broadcast Group for many years after the death of Skip Carter, before turning over control of the company to her grandson, Michael Carter, in 1987.
