- The Japan-Korea fellowship is organised by the Japanese and Korean Shoulder Societies which host the SECEC Fellows.
- Usually the fellows are travelling in October/November but the Japanese and Korean Societies choose the final dates.
- Two fellows will be selected among the candidates.
- Financial conditions: the Japanese and Korean Societies cover all travel expenses. The central office of the Japanese and Korean Societies makes the flight/train/car/rooms reservations.
- Travel reports are needed and are very important for the next fellowships. The Education Committee wishes, also, to get a non-official report with more personal remarks about the Centres and the travel. The fellows will present an official report during the Award Session of the SECEC congress.

These rules must be strictly respected and submitting an application involves that the candidates have accepted these rules.
