Scholarship programs

Scholarships will be awarded up to $2,500 and can be used for combined expenses relating to the conference. Scholarships will be approved prior to the event but reimbursed after proof of attendance and receipts for out-of-pocket expenses are provided. 

Take advantage of this opportunity to participate with your peers from around the country. Scholarship recipients will be reimbursed up to $2,500 for conference registration, hotel and airfare expenses. Any fees or expenses that exceed the awarded amount are the responsibility of the recipient and/or their credit union. Scholarship recipients for the conference must stay at the hotel in which the conference takes place.

1. Requests must be for the HR & Organizational Development Council Conference.

3. You must be a current member of the HR & Organizational Development Council.
