Tiffany Stergar is always searching for ways for herself — and others — to grow as a professional. She has engaged in countless activities like committees, workshops and programs, but last spring, she discovered a new way to fund her passion for learning. Check out Stergar’s experience with MaPSAC’s professional development grants in this “Purdue Pursuits” feature.

Examples of awarded grants include but are not limited to professional education or certification; attendance at lectures, conferences and seminars; and tuition assistance for academic classes.

MaPSAC has posted a grants webpage with additional information and a link to the online application. Applicants should also refer to the Grant Review Process document for information about the review of applications.
