The Poynter Leadership Academy for Women in Media has transformed the careers of more than 400 women in news media and tech.

Applications for the 2021 program are now open!

There will be three separate classes for Poynter’s 2021 program, held May 2-7, 2021 (Spring), Sept. 26-Oct. 1, 2021 (Fall) and Nov. 7-12, 2020 (Winter) at Poynter’s campus in St. Petersburg, Florida.

There will be one application to seat all 2021 classes, and it is open until Nov. 30, 2020.

This program is designed for women who directly manage people and are within their first 1-5 years of formal leadership experience. You can be an early-career journalist stepping into your third year as a manager or you can be a veteran journalist stepping into your first in management.

This program was created for you to become a self-aware leader and an effective manager. A cross-discipline understanding of the media landscape is a plus.
