PBS NewsHour SRL Academy achieves 100% app adoption with Whova

The PBS NewsHour SRL Academy partnered with Whova to address challenges in hosting a successful two-week virtual fellowship for teen journalism students. Their key challenges included encouraging active participation, building an online community, and managing event promotion and registration in a fully remote environment.

Using Whova's virtual event platform, the academy implemented features like the Community Board, live chat, Q&A, and a Social Wall to foster interaction. Whova's integrated tools also streamlined agenda creation, speaker management, and registration. The results included a 100% app adoption rate, an 82% attendee satisfaction rate with Whova, and a 100% announcement open rate, leading to a highly engaging virtual event.
