The 基金会 recognizes that other entities such as public/private utility companies around the State offer financial assistance as well to economic development practitioners. The intent of the 基金会’s Scholarship Program is not to replace but to augment and partner with other existing programs, extending the common goal of continued professional development while not duplicating efforts. Every effort will be made to coordinate scholarship opportunities between the 基金会 and other entities to avoid duplication of effort.
