TIPS:

Answers are saved automatically when you leave each field.
Turn SPELL-CHECKING on. Your browser probably has it, might as well use it.
Copying/pasting data works best when you are pasting UNFORMATTED text. (Bullets and other special characters do not transfer and are usually replaced with question marks.)
When you paste data into a field, the character count will be inaccurate until you add/delete at least one character.
Log out and come back at any time to continue your work, but be sure to finish and submit before the deadline.
Submit early, if you can!

2024 GPC & CMP Scholarships

Deadline 4/30/2024

View Open Programs | Show Description Hide Library Contact Admin

Description [hide this]

GPC Exam Scholarships are available to anyone eligible to take the GPC Exam. You can find out if you are eligible by taking the eligibility quiz on GPCI's website: https://www.grantcredential.org/the-exam/eligibility/

CMP Renewal Scholarships are for eligible GPCs seeking to renew their credentials in next four cohorts (9/1/2024, 12/1/2024, 3/1/2025, & 6/1/2025). Earning the GPC is an achievement that involves a significant investment of resources, both time and money. Ensuring that dedicated grant professionals who give back to the profession can keep their GPC, and that payment for their renewal isn't a barrier, is at the heart of this scholarship. All GPCs are eligible for the GPC CMP Scholarships. For two of the CMP scholarships, preference will be given for SmarteGrants GPC members. Jo Miller, GPC, Smartegrants Founder, established the SmarteGrants GPC CMP Scholarship to support dedicated grant professionals who have invested in earning their GPC, continued professional development, and the advancement of the grants profession.
