Why BAM Digital Media

We Don’t Just Teach About the Digital World.
We Built It.

Most digital literacy programs are written by educators who learned about technology. BAM’s curriculum was built by someone who spent 14 years inside the algorithms — running campaigns for Disney, Netflix, Amazon, and P&G. That’s not a credential. That’s the difference.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked

Answers to what schools, librarians, and program directors ask most.

Yes. BAM Digital Media LLC is an approved NYC DOE vendor (Vendor ID: SCH050064, DUNS: 10-112-3361) and holds both NYC and NYS MWBE certification. We’re procurement-ready and familiar with standard DOE contract and payment processes.
Yes — our 3–12 workshops are Project PIVOT eligible. If you’re unsure how to apply funding, we can walk you through it. We’ve worked with school administrators to navigate the funding process and are happy to help make the paperwork straightforward.
We recommend reaching out at least 3–4 weeks before your desired start date to allow time for proposal review, contract processing, and materials preparation. For full 12-week programs, 4–6 weeks lead time is ideal. That said, we’ll always do our best to accommodate shorter timelines when possible.
Yes. All programs are available both in-person (NYC metro area) and virtually nationwide. Virtual sessions are fully facilitated with the same materials, engagement, and outcomes as in-person delivery — we’ve served schools and organizations across the country remotely.
Single workshops are 45–90 minute standalone sessions on a specific topic — great for one-time events, PD days, library programming, or testing the waters. The 12-week programs are structured curriculum tracks with sequential skill-building, assessments, and capstone presentations. Both are valuable — the right fit depends on your timeline, budget, and goals.
Yes. Student materials and family take-home resources are available in English, Spanish, and Haitian Creole for K–12 and family programs. If your community has other language needs, contact us and we’ll discuss what’s possible.
Standard workshop sessions are priced at $800 per session. Full 12-week program pricing is shared via custom proposal, with tiered options to fit different budgets. Request a proposal to get exact numbers tailored to your program and organization.
Absolutely. We work with public libraries, community-based organizations, faith communities, after-school providers, workforce development programs, and government agencies. Our programs are designed for institutions of all kinds — not just schools. If you serve people who interact with technology (which is everyone), we can build something that fits.
