Through The SPJ News, the Society of Professional Journalists prepares the next generation of storytellers and truth seekers. Ten student journalists will be selected to cover presentations and events at the SPJ national convention, #SPJ23 in Las Vegas. Their work will be published on The #SPJNews23 digital site, https://thespjnews.org/

The SPJ News team includes three professional journalists who serve as mentors and guide the students during the convention. The program gives student journalists the opportunity to cover sessions, panels, keynote speakers and other events at the convention. 

The SPJ News participants will cover stories and enjoy opportunities to network with other students and professionals. Student journalists will also be required to share their stories on their social media platforms using the hashtag #SPJNews23. 

Applicants should be student journalists who can produce videos and audio segments, shoot photos and write digital stories in real-time. The more you can do the better. In your application, show us how you can use social media platforms to report the news. AP Style is required, and if you already use it in your reporting, let us know on your application.
