Help make AAPPR’s best-in-class education more accessible to those with limited budgets. This sponsorship program gives you the opportunity to strengthen your image and raise awareness of your brand by demonstrating your support and commitment to the profession.
AAPPR will:
- Publicize available scholarships on the AAPPR website, social media and email including recognition of the sponsor
- Fully administer the scholarship (including application, selection, communication, and reimbursement of travel expenses)
- Connect the sponsoring organization with the scholarship recipient for communication purposes
Scholarships will be applied toward registration fees, airfare, and hotel accommodations. Sponsoring more than one scholarship does not provide added exposure (just additional gratitude from more attendees!).
