Ever wanted to go back and get that degree? 
Or just take a one-day seminar for a specific subject or software? 
 
Well, IAWP has the money to help you do it! 
 
As a member of IAWP, you are eligible for several grants.  There is one scholarship on the International level called the Logan S. Chambers Grant that can give you and your dependents up to $150 in your first membership year!  If you continue to be a member, your grant amount increases.  Visit the International IAWP website, for more information: www.iawponline.org/education/grants.html
 

On the chapter level, there is the James F. Walls Grant, which is available every year.  Up to $50 of the Walls Grant can be used for study guides and exam fees for the Workforce Professional Development Program (WPDP) or for other educational material such as books.  Like the International grant, amounts are awarded based on membership:

·                    1st year member: $50

·                    2-4 year member: $100

·                    5+ year member: $150

 

Criteria for the grant, an application checklist, and the application can be found here.
