The Jerry King Memorial Scholarship for Project Management Excellence

When I announced my blogging break back in May, I alluded to "other projects". One of these projects is now coming to fruition.

In cooperation with the PMI Educational Foundation, The Friends of Jerry King have made available a unique scholarship. The first award has been funded and we are actively seeking both applicants for a September award and assistance in permanently endowing the scholarship with $25,000.

This scholarship is unique because

- it is a training, rather than an academic scholarship
- it is regional in scope (PMI Region 7 or Southwest North America, including Hawaii, California, Nevada, New Mexico, and Arizona)
- in addition to being available to PMI Members, teachers, school administrators, non-profit staff, and un-/under-employed Project Managers are invited to apply

So if you would like to get more information about the scholarship or apply, please visit Jerry King Memorial Scholarship for Project Management Excellence.

If you are able to help us fund this unique scholarship offering and permanently endow it through raising $25,000 (your gift, no matter how large or how small counts), please visit the scholarship fund raising page.

Thank you in advance for your help with this important initiative.
