Certification March 2017 Update
SHRM Foundation Certification Scholarships
In 2017, the SHRM Foundation will award almost $500,000 in support of students seeking undergraduate, graduate, certification and professional development opportunities. It would be great to see Wisconsin SHRM members be recognized as scholarship recipients!
Scholarship funds may be used for any combination of test preparation expenses, such as SHRM Certification Preparation tools and/or exam fees.
In addition to the SHRM Foundation Certification Scholarships, your WISHRM state council sponsors a Certification Scholarship in the amount of $750 for a SHRM national member who lives or works in Wisconsin and is preparing to sit for the SHRM-CP or SHRM-SCP certification exam.
When applying for a SHRM certification scholarship, eligible applicants will be considered for both the Foundation and WI State Council sponsored scholarship. To apply go to
the SHRM Foundation Scholarship page (
https://www.shrm.org/foundation/ourwork/scholarships/certification/pages/default.aspx)
The deadline for the Spring offering is coming up soon so make sure to get your application in. The WISHRM Certification Scholarship will be awarded in Summer 2017.
