Are PBS, NETA or APT production houses?
No. APT Worldwide licenses programming and has successfully sold programming to major television outlets in Great Britain, RAISAT in Italy and Alliance/Atlantis in Canada and the US. The National Programming Service (NPS) is the major package of programs that PBS distributes to its member stations. Programs distributed on the NPS are produced by independent producers and sources around the world. PBS does not produce programs. NETA provides public broadcasting with valued business leadership and professional development, to foster the exchange of information and knowledge. PBS, NETA and APT are not networks. They provide programming and related services to noncommercial stations.
