The Television Academy Foundation has opened registration for its annual Media Educators Conference, targeting college and university media arts educators nationwide, to be held Oct. 9-11 at the Television Academy in North Hollywood. In addition, applications are now being accepted for its Alex Trebek Legacy Fellowships, which provide support for college educators around the country interested in attending the conference, with an emphasis on those from minority-serving institutions.

With Jamila Hunter, president of Macro Television, chairing the foundation’s education committee, the annual Media Educators Conference aims to bridge the gap between academia and the television industry, ensuring that educators are well equipped to teach the next generation of media professionals. The immersive, three-day event is priced at $350 per person; to register visit televisionacademy .com/media-educators/register. Registration closes on Tuesday, Oct. 1. Faculty attendees will receive a one-year complimentary academic membership to the Television Academy.

The Foundation’s Alex Trebek Legacy Fellowships were established in 2021 by the Harry & Judy Friedman Family Foundation with additional support from Sony Pictures Entertainment in honor of late television icon and “Jeopardy!” host Alex Trebek. To apply for a fellowship, visit televisionacademy.com/media-educators/trebek. The deadline to apply is Tuesday, Sept. 3.
