State Employees Credit Union
Foundation Offers Continuing Education Scholarship – Apply Now!
The State Employees Credit Union Foundation is
offering a Continuing Education scholarship to North Carolina residents. Students must be
enrolled in a short-term training program that leads to a state-regulated or
industry-recognized credential.
The SECU established the Continuing Education
scholarship program to aid students to learn or
update career-related skills. The SECU and the NC Community College System
(including COA) joined efforts to provide the scholarship, helping the state
and northeast region’s citizens with career and job training. The program will
help produce and sustain a high quality workforce for North Carolina.
The maximum scholarship award is $750. Funds may be
used to either pay or reimburse students for registration fees, books,
certification, and course supplies.
To receive these funds, students must demonstrate
satisfactory progress towards course completion. Satisfactory progress is
defined as: satisfactory completion of a prior course, satisfactory course
completion, or instructor-recommendation after completing at least half of the
required coursework.
The priority application deadline is September 16,
2013. Apply now!
Complete the application and return to the
Workforce Development & Continuing Education Department at any COA
location. Questions? Call (252) 335-0821 x 2250
