AF Teacher Fellowship for STEM Educators
American Fidelity is offering an excellent program providing teachers professional growth and real-world experience to help prepare their students for their careers. We hope you can help us recruit qualified Oklahoma candidates and get the message out there to those who may be interested.
The American Fidelity Teacher Fellowship program offers an exciting opportunity for professional growth and real-world experience. The program is available for third through 12th grade STEM teachers. Those chosen for the program spend time at AF corporate headquarters, immersing them themselves into the IT team to learn about software development, enterprise information management, security and infrastructure projects.
AF Fellowship teachers earn a corporate salary during the summer internship-like experience and receive $2,000 stipend for their classrooms.
Applications are accepted through Feb. 25, 2022. Selected applicants will be required to attend a virtual interview on March 18. The 2022 program lasts up to 8 weeks with a mix of virtual and in-person training in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Applicants need to be available for in-person training the first week and last week of the internship. American Fidelity will provide hotel accommodations if necessary.
Teachers interested in this program may fill out an application on the AF website, and can sign-up for future notifications about the program by completing this form.
