The Education Team has structured the grants to relate to certain job profiles to help the recipient advance their knowledge and skills in their respective fields: These grants focus on offering access to in-person trainings via our packaged seminars. For in-person attendance of courses, hotel accommodations are included with the grant. Grant recipients are responsible for any additional travel expenses. If the recipient is unable to attend an in-person training, the recipient will be offered online training options instead.

Winners will receive notification of their award by October 31, 2026 and announcement will be made via the website and social media. Candidates can only apply for one choice of grant.
