ScholarshipsWACUBO offers professional development scholarships to individual employees of WACUBO member institutions. These scholarships will go toward all or a portion of the registration fees of an annual conference, professional development (PDC) workshop, or other WACUBO-sponsored professional development programs. Scholarships DO NOT cover other expenses (e.g., travel, incidentals, etc.). Scholarships will only be awarded to individuals and cannot be applied to any employee attending whose institution has purchased a group registration. Please confirm with your institution if a group registration will be purchased prior to submitting your scholarship application. You may also contact the WACUBO Office directly to verify if your institution has already purchased a group registration. Apply Today!Purpose of ScholarshipThe general scholarship program goals are to increase participation levels at the annual conference, serve more constituents through WACUBO programs and PDC offerings, and engage more participants from constituent group institutions; to provide assistance to individuals who might not otherwise be able to attend a WACUBO-sponsored development activity, or would not normally attend WACUBO-sponsored programs; to provide networking opportunities between active WACUBO members and scholarship recipients. Qualification for AwardThe applicant’s institution should be located within the WACUBO region. Who is eligible?
Constituent committees will approve one scholarship per calendar year per institution or one scholarship per individual per three years, regardless of the event requested. Scholarships may not be applied to Institutions that have purchased a group registration. Please confirm with your institution prior to submitting your application if a group registration has been purchased for the event you wish to attend. You may also contact the WACUBO Office directly to verify if your institution has already purchased a group registration. Requirements of AwardeesThe expectation is that the scholarship recipients would continue their participation (and/or increase participation from their institution) in WACUBO activities. Additionally, upon completion of the program, we ask the recipient to participate in a brief survey that describes the value of the program to their professional development. We will use your feedback to improve our process and programs. Scholarship ApplicationThe reviewing committee will evaluate scholarship applications and make awards based on the established scholarship program goals (e.g., increase participation at new member institutions) and the application materials.
