- Access Center Professional – Programs created by employees of community media or access centers.
- Independent Producer – Programs created by producers independent of community media or access centers (no compensation).
- Student Division – Programs created by current students enrolled in primary, secondary or undergraduate schools. Non-students may supervise the production, but the overall direction, control of the production and all technical tasks (camera, directing, editing, sound, etc.) must be performed by the youth involved.
