Open Scholarship Opportunities
Innovation Scholarship
The ASFCCC is pleased to announce the new Innovation Scholarship. The goal of this new scholarship is to provide faculty with funding to attend ASCCC events as well as external events and conferences to expand their understanding of best practices and apply them to their local college and share those results with the field at large. Special consideration will be given to grants that promote and enhance IDEA (Inclusivity, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Anti-racism). Please submit the Innovation Scholarship Application.
