GPCI Scholarship
Applications Open Annually from April 1st to 31st
Awards Announced in June
The Southeast Texas GPA Chapter encourages all members to pursue and maintain their GPC certification. Our chapter funds an annual scholarship for those wanting to take the GPC exam and for those renewing their GPC certification who need assistance with the cost.
The scholarship covers either the full cost of the exam or the cost of certification renewal.
Grant Summit Scholarship
Applications Open Annually from June 1st to 3oth
Awards Announced in July
Our chapter wants everyone who would like to attend the GrantSummit to have that opportunity. GPA’s national conference is an incredible learning and networking opportunity, and the Southeast Texas Chapter recognizes that not all nonprofit or government organizations can afford to send their employees, and not all contractors have it in their budgets.
The scholarship covers the cost of registration to the annual GrantSummit.
