About the fellowships

The International VET Practitioner Fellowship Program provides successful applicants with funding to undertake applied research in an international context.

Practitioners generate actionable knowledge and develop innovative practices that are applicable in their chosen professional field. The research process and the insights produced result in impacts at the personal and professional levels for the researchers, for their institutions and for the sector as a whole.

Interested in applying? A second application round for the fellowships opens on 1 June this year. Contact the ISS Institute(opens in a new window) for more information.
