Apply now for TABPI Young Leaders scholarship
Applications are now open for the TABPI Young Leaders Scholarship, which was created to increase interest in the B2B publishing world with younger editors who are advancing in their editorial careers. The scholarship allows younger editors – who might otherwise be unable – to attend an educational B2B editorial event.
This year's scholarship is to attend the ASBPE Editorial Conference, scheduled for 24 – 25 July 2008 in Kansas City, Missouri, US. The conference contains an evening networking event on 23 July, followed by two full days of intensive editorial sessions on topics that will include:
- Useful seminars, panel discussions, and workshops targeted at editors of business, trade, and association print and web publications
- A chance to network with fellow business editors in an interactive setting designed for editors
- Top-notch, cutting-edge speakers
These scholarships are open to all business editors, including print and web, who work outside of the US. Scholarships pay the conference and hotel room costs for up to two worthy applicants per year, along with up to US$500 towards airfare costs. Transportation to and from the conference, any non-conference meals, and other incurred costs are the responsibility of the winners or their individual publishing companies. The scholarship is not transferable to other persons or events.
Applicants must meet the following qualifications:
- Are 30 years of age or younger on or about 23 July 2008
- Are currently a business publication editor, and have been so for a minimum of two years
- Candidacy is sponsored by their publication's chief editor
- Plan to continue in the business press as a career
The deadline for applications is 3 March 2008. The application form is posted at www.tabpi.org/scholarship.htm. Scholarship winners will be notified on or before 30 April. A listing of winners will also be posted on www.tabpi.org.
If you have questions about your submission, or general questions about the scholarship, email them to or contact TABPI president Paul J Heney on cell 1 440 376 5672.
For editors in the US, ASBPE sponsors a similar scholarship –see www.asbpe.org for details (click on the Azbees Call for Entries pdf and see pages 14 –15).
The scholarship is sponsored by TABPI and the American Society of Business Publication Editors (ASBPE), with generous support from TABPI Platinum Sponsor FosteReprints.
