NATPE is a global, non-profit organization dedicated to the creation, development and distribution of televised programming in all forms across all mature and emerging media platforms.

Georgia Dawkins (National Association of Black Journalists), Huma Khan (Asian Association Journalism Association), Peter Martinez (National Association of Hispanic Journalists), and Paloma Veloz (National Association of Hispanic Journalists) were chosen for this summer's unprecedented digital media fellowship at ABC NEWS in New York.

In June, each student received training at the state-of-the-art ABC NEWS Bullpen. They learned the ABC NEWS workflow with programs like Avid iNews, Newscutter, and Media Manager. They also spent time training with Sony camcorders and non-linear editing video.
