The CBC News Summer Scholarship
- In memory of Joan Donaldson and Peter Gzowski_
CBC News is proud to offer its summer scholarship to aspiring journalists from across the country, a four-month, in-person program that provides valuable hands-on experience in multiplatform news environments. The scholarship replaces and builds on the successes of two former CBC programs for emerging journalists - the Joan Donaldson Scholarship and the Peter Gzowski Internship - bringing them together in one program.
The program is designed to give high-potential emerging journalists experience in both CBC News’ national programming units in Toronto, as well as regional newsrooms across the country, setting them up for potential employment at CBC in the long term.
The 2025 program will run from May through August 2025. May and June will be spent in Toronto at the CBC Broadcast Centre; July and August will be spent in a CBC regional station.
CBC provides a robust training program and ongoing mentorship to ensure scholars are properly supported during the program.
