From: "Sylvia A. Miller" <sylviaamiller>

Hello!
Please spread the word about the following scholarship offerings:
For the sixth consecutive year the STC’s Instructional Design & Learning group is offering two scholarships—one undergraduate and one graduate. These scholarships were created to assist students who are pursuing an undergraduate degree, graduate degree, or certificate in Instructional Design. Students applying for this scholarship are expected to be able to demonstrate their focus on topics related to Instructional Design through their academic studies, current jobs, graduate or certificate program, or special projects.

The IDL SIG scholarship awards this year are $500 for undergraduate and $750 for graduate students. The Scholarship Committee evaluates applicants’ academic records and potential for contributing to the Instructional Design profession. To be eligible for a scholarship, you must be:

· Enrolled in a graduate degree, undergraduate degree, or certificate program in the field of Instructional Design, Educational Technology, Instructional Technology, Distance Learning, or a similar field.
· Pursuing a career as an Instructional Designer or a related major.
