ABOUT SEGGING ACADEMY
Segging Academy is a program designed to prepare volunteers to segment in any channel. On-air, off-air, English, Spanish, Korean, Taiwanese, Japanese — whatever you're interested in, we'll help you gain the skills to segment!
The segmenting program consists of two parts: Sandbox and Academy. In the Sandbox, you become familiar with the segmenting tools and expectations. Then, you have the option to continue to the Academy in order to perfect your skills. We highly recommend completing the entire program — both Sandbox and Academy — in order to best be prepared for segmenting in on-air and off-air projects.
There are five levels of different languages in the Academy, each taught by a different sensei. Finally, there is a graduation test at the end of the program to test what you have learned! The test includes a short written and segmenting portion.
