The CWC/Banff World Television Festival Scholarship

For the third consecutive year, Canadian Women in Communications (CWC) and the Banff World Television Festival (BANFF) are offering the CWC/Banff World Television Festival Scholarship. The scholarship enables one CWC member to attend the 2008 Banff World Television Festival and "be where great television is born."

The CWC/Banff World Television Festival Scholarship includes registration at the 2008 BANFF and $1,000 towards travel and accommodation. Part of the scholarship also includes having the scholarship winner detail her experiences at the Festival on a blog that will be featured on the CWC website. Staff from the CWC National Office will assist the winner with all aspects of creating and uploading blog entries. By contributing to the blog, the scholarship winner will not only learn more about Social Media, Web 2.0 applications and the blogosphere, but also raise her profile within the communications industry.

Congratulations to this year's recipients:

•Nicole Brooks, Toronto, Ontario
•Margie Hope, Calgary, Alberta
