Intern Scholarships and Research Grants

Intern Scholarship Program

The deadline to submit an Intern scholarship application has past. Please check back at a later time for updates.

The National Association for Alternative Certification (NAAC) invites applications for the annual intern scholarships. NAAC will award up to three scholarships to outstanding alternative certification interns to recognize their accomplishments and enable their participation in the NAAC annual conference. Scholarship winners receive:

  • An award of $1,000

  • Up to $500 in travel expenses to attend the NAAC annual conference, March 9-12, 2011 in Chicago

  • Complimentary registration to the conference

  • Complimentary one-year membership in NAAC
  • NAAC has revised the judging process to include more national representation. Judges will be chosen from each of NAAC’s five regions. The applicants will be reviewed first by the judges in their region, and a finalist from each region will be chosen. The five finalists will then be reviewed by a national committee of judges, and the top three will be awarded scholarships. The two other finalists will receive honorable mention.

    Members are encouraged to nominate one or more outstanding interns!
