NCSCA Professional Development Scholarship
The North Carolina School Counselor Association (NCSCA) is awarding professional development scholarships to counselors to attend professional educational opportunities to enhance knowledge and skills in the delivery of a comprehensive school counseling program in North Carolina elementary, middle, and high schools.

Our goal is to identify and disseminate best practices targeting school counseling by:

  • focusing on exemplary counseling skills,
  • modeling effective school counseling strategies,
  • demonstrating applications of emerging school counseling practicesding

Allowable expenses include registration costs and workshop materials. Travel and lodging may be an allowable expense, depending on the total amount requested. Food, phone, & mileage are not allowable expenses. The quality of the application and demonstrated impact on the counseling program will determine the size of the grant. Grant awards will not exceed $1,000. Scholarships may be awarded as partial funding.

Funds are available until depleted for each semester on the school calendar. NCSCA will post on website when funds are no longer available.
