OKLAHOMA CITY, OK – Applications are now open for the American Fidelity STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) Teacher Fellowship Class of 2025!
The AF STEM Teacher Fellowship offers educators an opportunity to work in our software department, data, IT security or technical infrastructure areas and gain real-world, hands-on experience to help students prepare for these types of careers. The STEM fellows also build a valuable network with other STEM instructors participating in the program and those working in corporate IT roles.
“This is the greatest opportunity you could ever find as a classroom teacher because the kind of support system you get from this organization and the resources they provide you as a STEM teacher will actually help,” said Abraham Kamara, 2024 STEM fellow from Tulsa Public Schools.
Applications for this year’s program are open to third through 12th-grade STEM teachers and are due by Feb. 14. Selected applicants must be able to attend an interview March 21.
The selected candidates will earn a corporate IT salary for their time worked and will each receive a $2,000 stipend for their classrooms upon completion of the program. The program aims to have onsite collaboration as often as possible at American Fidelity headquarters in Oklahoma City as well as built-in flexibility for virtual participation.
The 2025 class will begin June 2, and will welcome 15 teachers. Interested teachers can find more information and apply at americanfidelity.com/teacher-fellowship.
