Scholarships to SABEW conference available

Two scholarships to the annual SABEW conference to be held April 30 through May 2 in Minneapolis are being offered by the Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism at the American Press Institute.

Applicants should be full-time journalists who cover business and supervisor approval is required. These scholarships, worth more than $800 each, cover registration and three nights lodging.

Submit a 250-word statement by Wednesday, April 5, outlining your interest in business coverage and describing how attending the conference will help you.

“While our primary emphasis is on our own free workshops and BusinessJournalism.org, the Reynolds Center at API is supportive of professional organizations such as SABEW that are dedicated to improving the quality of business journalism,” said Andrew Leckey, director of the Reynolds Center at API, noting that the Center’s staff members are also SABEW members.

Apply for the scholarship by e-mail to Managing Editor Kevin Sweeney at ksweeney@americanpressinstitute.org or 703-715-3325.
