The NAHJ-Apple News Fellowship is a partnership between the National Association of Hispanic Journalists and Apple News that provides hands-on experience at the intersection of news and technology. Fellows work on an app connecting millions of users with journalism from leading news organizations, gaining experience in breaking news, audio, newsletters, and other editorial areas.
The nine-month program begins with three months rotating through editorial teams, followed by six months developing expertise in a focus area selected with Apple News leadership. Work includes curating journalism for quality, accuracy, and context, writing engaging display copy, and planning major-event coverage. Fellows collaborate with publisher partners and the News Standards team, receive weekly guidance from a manager and mentor, and share project insights with the broader News organization.
