ECCI Fall 2008 Scholarship Program

A generous benefactor has donated $10,000 for use by deserving students during fall term 2008. So by popular demand, we are now able to provide merit scholarships to students who qualify and need some help to cover tuition. To find out how to apply, please read the instructions on tihs page carefiully.

Program Goal: The goal of this merit scholarship program is to provide tuition assistance to truly deserving students who need to obtain their executive career coach certification but are challenged by financial obstacles.

Scholarship Amount: We have learned that students who apply themselves most cover at least 50% of their own tuition, so no merit scholarships will be provided for more than half of the entire program cost. Therefore, please carefully consider the amount of your request so that we can help as many students as possible.

Eligible Programs: Further, we have learned that obtaining certification is the best way to set students up to succeed. Therefore, scholarships may only be applied towards our certification tracks. And the ECCI scholarship program is not intended for people who must obtain certification for an existing position.

Candidates should carefully evaluate their desire to become a Certified Executive Career Coach prior to applying (see ECCC program details here). They should be certain that they will take full advantage of the educational opportunities afforded them through the scholarship and that they are able to follow through with the requirements of the scholarship.

Application Process: There are several parts to this application. Please fill out the entire application. Incomplete applications will not be considered.
