Intelligent Media Institute's mission is Promoting Diversity through Mass Communications. The program offers 13 to 18-year-olds of all cultures, races, and economic backgrounds a unique learning experience designed to provide media skills, scholarship opportunities and other career-building tools for success. Intelligent Kidz Media Life Skills Institute’s teens will gain strong values, self-confidence, and high levels of self esteem generated by overcoming challenges and meeting high expectations. They will enjoy making new friends, traveling, meeting celebrities, and appearing on television and in print.

Intelligent Media Institute's approach is four-tiered and involves education, production, and open-market commerce.

First, Intelligent Media Institute trains its diverse student body in media skills, giving teens access to media outlets for education and self-expression. Teens learn entrepreneurial skills, including teamwork, respect for deadlines, and the importance of being able to generate profits. By setting minimum grade point average standards, involving parents, and providing scholarships, Intelligent Media Institute prepares students for college and careers in the media industry.

Second, Intelligent Media Institute channels the efforts of its budding media professionals into the production of professional-quality media products. Presently, Intelligent Media Institute participants will support and run a magazine, a television show, a radio show, a recording studio, a record label and four web sites that compare favorably with most "adult-produced" media. Third, Intelligent Media Institute will use its media products and media capabilities to generate funds, thus lessening the Institute's reliance on grants and contributions. In the first three (3) years of operations Intelligent Media Institute will earn over 50% of its revenue and will be halfway to its goal of becoming financially self-sustaining.

Intelligent Media Institute will measure youth achievement by several standards. For example, the Institute ability to increase scholarship awards to its graduates. Intelligent Media Institute will work to see an increase in unsolicited letters of support, in contributions, and in offers from community members to volunteer with the Institute. Individual Intelligent Media Institute media divisions measure success by revenue generated, ratings, distribution, subscribers, and web site hits. But the truest measure of success is will be found in the lives of The Intelligent Media Institute alumni, who will be able to support themselves and build media careers worldwide. They will be carrying out the Intelligent mission, Promoting Diversity through Mass Communications.
