Acknowledgement of Requirements
Please check each box below to acknowledge that you understand the commitment the applicant and your organization are making to this program.
Year-long Commitment*
- I understand that this is a year-long professional development fellowship.
Orientation*
- I understand that the Fellow will be required to participate in orientation, which will be held online in late August. It will require a commitment of approximately 30 hours over 1-2 weeks.
Goals*
- I understand the fellow will be required to craft a year-long project plan that must be approved by the supervisor, and that includes goals agreed upon by the organization and NTEN for serving a specific number of unique participants, instruction hours, trained volunteers, newly staffed lab hours, or other related service areas. These goals will be tracked by the fellow and reported to NTEN on a monthly basis. Should the fellow leave the organization, another staff member will report program outcomes on a monthly basis. Fellows are expected to serve at least 200 unique participants. (While 200 is a baseline for the program, NTEN will work together with the fellow and supervisor to make sure the goals are feasible for each organization.) I also understand that the fellow will be expected to start piloting their project within the first 90 days of the fellowship program.
Training and Cohort Community*
- I understand the fellow will be required to participate in monthly online trainings. The time commitment for these trainings will range from 1 to 2.5 hours per month, depending on the format of the training. The fellow will also participate in monthly calls and will commit to being an active participant in the cohort message board.
NTEN Check-ins*
- I understand the fellow will participate in a monthly 1-on-1 check-in with Digital Inclusion Fellowship staff to discuss plans, progress, challenges, etc. These calls may be 15 to 60 minutes long. The supervisor may occasionally be asked to join the check-in.
