Eligible officers and federal government employees interested in cultural immersion in Japan can look into the Mansfield Fellowship Program. The program enables federal employees to develop in-depth understanding of Japan and its government and to develop relationships with their Japanese counterparts. Participants will have a seven-week home-stay and intensive Japanese language program in the Ishikawa Prefecture, followed by a 10-month placement in Tokyo. Selectees must be available for reassignment. Nomination memos are due to the Air Force Personnel Center (AFPC) by July 31. For more information about the program, visit the Maureen and Mike Mansfield Foundation website at www.mansfieldfdn.org. Complete eligibility requirements and application instructions for all programs are available on myPers.
