THE CONCLAVE�s TALENT TRAK, held at COLUMBIA COLLEGE in CHICAGO last SATURDAY, lived up to its billing as an exciting and informative event. As promised, there were topic intensive sessions, a special keynote by CHICAGO CUBS broadcaster LEN KASPER and the one-on-one TALENTRACK aircheck clinic.
�This was one of our most successful TALENTRAKs, with nearly 40 students enrolled, coached by 20 of our industry�s finest programmers." CONCLAVE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TOM KAY said.
"From the opening session on air talent tips with EMMIS Classic Rock WLUP/CHICAGO's BILL KLAPROTH (the host for the day) and CLEAR CHANNEL Urban MILWAUKEE PD BAILEY COLEMAN with NEXT MEDIA Classic Rock WERV/AURORA, IL PD MATT DUBIEL to our production and imaging session with production pros BONNEVILLE/CHICAGO�s MATT BISBEE and EMMIS WLUP/WKQX/CHICAGO�s BRIAN RHODES ... to our career tips seminar conducted by CITADEL COMMUNICATIONS News/Talk WLS/CHICAGO PD KIPPER McGEE, volumes of important information were shared. TALENTRAK keynoter LEN KASPER - a self-proclaimed 'radio guy in a TV person�s body� - was inspirational with his presentation, �MAKE THE CALL. In an industry that needs more �feel good� stories, TALENTRAK delivered this weekend in CHICAGO. A special thanks to COLUMBIA COLLEGE for hosting this wonderful event.�
