$1,500 in Continuing Education Grant Funds are available each calendar year (January 1 – December 31). Professionals, graduate students, and undergraduate students are encouraged to apply for a Continuing Education Grant to support their education and career goals.

Grant requests should not exceed $500 per application and are limited to current Chapter members only. Membership dues are $6/year (Join or renew here). Only one grant is awarded per person, per year.

Applications can be submitted at any time and will be reviewed quarterly by the Committee in January, April, July, and October.
