The ASAE Research Foundation has just announced a new CAE Scholarship that will be offered in an effort to build a more diverse association workforce and provide a more equitable playing field. The CAE scholarship program will provide financial assistance to support a diverse workforce of underserved communities in pursuing the Certified Association Executive credential. Each scholarship recipient will receive an award of $500– which can be applied to the application fee (a total of $500) or used for exam preparation (i.e., reading materials or prep courses.) In addition, all scholarship recipients awarded the scholarship will receive the member rate for the CAE exam registration (including non-members), which must be used within one year of award receipt. Additionally, each non-member scholarship recipient will receive one-year of complimentary ASAE membership and the scholarship award amount.
