APPLY NOW FOR UPCOMING PROGRAMS & AWARDS:
Paul Miller Washington Reporting Fellowships
The deadline is June 2 to apply for this free, one-day-a-month program for Washington-based reporters. This year’s fellows will join 21 previous classes of journalists who have added sources and improved methods through this signature NPF program. In daylong sessions each month from September through June, fellows learn from veteran colleagues, officials and experts how to mine the nation’s capital for important local news. The class will be selected from print, web and broadcast media; supervisors must agree to allow fellows to attend the seminars, and fellows must attend. Apply on our website.
