Diana Lansleen Hi Lindy,
I just love all the resources you are sharing with everyone! One of your blog posts was about getting jobs in the industry and since you suggested it, I'm going to post some resources that might be helpful for your readers that I'm aware of to help spread the word about them.
One suggestion would be to see if professional associations offer any internship or training programs.
I'm a current member of The Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, so that's the association that I know the most about, but I'm listing some other industry association links below as well.
The Academy of Television Arts & Sciences Foundation

Directors Guild – Producer Training Plan

Producers Guild of America

The WGAW Writers Training Program

Many of these programs offer the opportunity to have a mentor when you get accepted into them.

I found these links helpful -- but because the deadlines have passed, I decided to print out the information and prepare applications so that I can apply for them as soon as the notice comes up that program is looking for candidates.
