ALFRED FRIENDLY PRESS FELLOWSHIPS
The Alfred Friendly Press Fellowships (AFPF) welcomes applications for the 2005 AFPF Fellowship competition, which provides print journalists from developing countries with professional training in American newsrooms.
This year, up to 10 Fellows will be selected for five-month internships at an American newspaper, where they will receive hands-on training and learn U.S. journalism standards that can be applied and adapted in their home countries.
Fellows are selected based on their level of English language skills, journalistic ability and commitment to careers in journalism. Fellows are typically between the ages of 25 and 35, have at least six years of print journalism experience and have spent little or no time in the United States.
The deadline for applications is 1 September 2004. The 2005 fellowships begin in March 2005.
