Sign up for the 2022 NICAR Conference mentorship program

Applications are now open to participate in the #NICAR22 conference mentorship program, either as a mentor or as a mentee, for IRE’s live program in Atlanta in March.

If you’ll be joining us for the conference in person, you can sign up by filling out this form. If you can’t make it to Atlanta this year but still want to find a mentor, please check out the IRE page at JournalismMentors.com, where you can set up a time to meet virtually with an IRE member mentor.

IRE will match mentors with mentees and arrange for them to meet at a breakfast during the conference. The NICAR22 mentorship breakfast — sponsored by the Donald W. Reynolds Journalism Institute, University of Missouri — will be held from 7:30 - 8:45 a.m. on Friday, March 5, at the conference hotel.

Space is limited in this popular program, and the deadline to apply is midnight CT on Friday, Feb. 11. If the slots are filled before then, your application will be added to a waitlist.

Please also note that you must register for the conference by Feb. 14 in order to participate.
