About the FABA Fellows Program

Starts: June 3rd, 2026 | Ends: August 12th, 2026
Every Wednesday from 6:00–7:30 PM EST | 100% Virtual

Are you a student majoring in Business, Information Technology, Media, Computer Science, Journalism, Communications, etc ? 

Join us this summer to strengthen your skills and learn more about Real Estate, Investing, and Homeownership.

The FABA Fellows Program is a 12-week virtual learning and professional development experience designed for college students and emerging professionals interested in real estate, financial literacy, technology, marketing, media, and community impact.

Hosted by the team behind FindABlackAgent.com (FABA) — a national real estate platform connecting homebuyers, sellers, renters, and investors with real estate professionals across the United States — the program is designed to help students build practical knowledge, expand their professional networks, and gain exposure to industries connected to housing, business, and technology.

The core of the program focuses on real estate education, including homeownership, investing fundamentals, housing markets, financial readiness, and long-term wealth-building concepts.

Throughout the summer, Fellows will participate in weekly educational sessions focused on home buying and real estate investing, while also engaging in bi-weekly professional development breakout sessions led by professionals across technology, cybersecurity, marketing, media, entrepreneurship, and business.

Unlike a traditional internship, the FABA Fellows Program is intentionally structured as a collaborative learning journey that prioritizes exposure, education, mentorship, and career exploration.
