Bearing the Presidential moniker, the PMF Program is the Federal Government's premier leadership development program for advanced degree holders across all academic disciplines. It was established over 45 years ago by Executive Order and has gone through changes over the years, but the essential mission remains the same: to recruit and develop a cadre of future government leaders drawn from all segments of society. Eligible individuals apply to be selected as Finalists. Finalists then have 12 months to secure an appointment as a Fellow, which is a two-year, full-time, paid fellowship at a Federal agency. The PMF Program creates a lasting bond among Fellows and Alumni. It also instills a spirit of public service, which, for Fellows who complete the program successfully, can ultimately encourage and lead to a career in government.

Key Fellowship Benefits:

- A full-time job with salary and benefits

- Promotion potential to the GS-13

- Agency employers must provide each Fellow with 80 hours of formal, interactive training and development each year of the fellowship

- The PMF Program Office provides access to a two-year PMF Leadership Development Program that can provide a significant portion of those training and development hours

An array of substantial employment benefits (e.g., health, life, dental and vision, and long-term care insurance; Thrift Savings Plan; paid holidays and leave; and flexible work schedules)

Additional potential benefits, depending on the agency, may include public transportation subsidies, telework, and student loan repayment
