Scholarship Application

Professional development scholarships and grants in the amount of $400 each are available for the 2012 national conference, scheduled March 11 to 14 in San Francisco, Calif.

Scholarships are designated for new members who have never attended a national conference and for seasoned professionals who can demonstrate how they will benefit from attending the conference. The grants are designated for those employed at colleges with restricted travel budgets.

The awards don't cover all conference costs, but they go a long way toward making it possible to attend.

The deadline for submitting applications is Friday, Jan. 13.
