Fellowships last a minimum of 10 weeks. The exact number of weeks will depend on the individual fellow's school schedule and the host company's preference.

Aug. 2011
Fellows make final presentations to their host companies and prepare final reports for EDF.

Aug.-Sept. 2011
EDF reviews and aggregates results from each fellow. The aggregate results of this program will be made public in order to maximize both environmental and business benefits. However, EDF will not refer to any company's program or results publicly without prior written approval.

After the fellowship
EDF's objective is to demonstrate that energy efficiency saves energy and therefore saves companies money. EDF staff will follow-up with the host companies to find out whether identified measures are implemented and the resulting energy savings six months, 12 months and 24 months after the fellowship is complete.
