Guidelines

This program will provide scholarships up to $500 for Washington County young adults (18-29), of low-to-moderate income, who will be attending training and/or certification program that will increase their opportunities for immediate employment or job advancement. A limited amount of funds have also been set aside for adults outside of this age group. 

To be eligible for a scholarship, applicants cannot be matriculated students enrolled in a college or university, though the classes can be through a college or university.  This can be one class, such as a spreadsheet or word processing course, or a short certification program, such as Certified Residential Medications Aide.  This program will not provide scholarships toward an Associate, Bachelor, or higher degrees. The applicant must be able to show taking this course/program will allow them access to immediate employment or job advancement.  Scholarships will not be considered for classes taken only for self-enrichment. Funds can be used only for tuition.
