Interactive news editing interns will be trained at Temple University, Pennsylvania State University and the University of Missouri.

The University of Texas, Austin will serve as the Fund’s interactive news editing design hub, with special emphasis placed on page design, headline writing, and data visualization.

The Fund and sponsoring media cover travel costs to and from training and to newsrooms. Interns are responsible for their housing and transportation costs during the internship.
