Alphabet soup: professional journalism groups

Here are some of the better-known professional associations for journalists and journalism educators. Their Web sites can give students a look at some of the different types of jobs available -- find one that interests you, browse around and learn about the current issues in that field.

Many have resources online, whether it's job banks or help in covering a beat. And some offer scholarships and internships.

Send me more if you know of organizations that should be included.
Also see Poynter's list of links.
