2018 IOM Scholarship Available

Early registration deadline for Winter Institute is Nov. 17

Once again, the Ohio Society of Association Executives (OSAE) is proud to partner with Institute for Organization Management, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation’s professional development program for non-profit executives, and to offer two $500 partial tuition scholarships to one of the institute’s 2018 sites. The two scholarships, available to our members, will be awarded to students attending Institute for the first time to assist with enrollment fees and cannot be combined with any other Institute scholarships.

For more than 95 years, the program has educated association, chamber and other nonprofit leaders across the country through its national program, highly-rated curriculum and high-caliber instructors. Thousands of executives have attended Institute sites across the country to strengthen their management skills, learn industry best practices and gain a broad national perspective from peers. The program has helped them build stronger organizations, become stronger business advocates and better serve their members. In addition, participants will earn points toward their CCE or CAE certification as Institute’s curriculum is directly tied to the bodies of knowledge of both the American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) and the Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives.

Upon completion of the institute program, graduates receive the IOM recognition which allows them to use the letters “IOM” in public mention and professional correspondence. The IOM recognition signifies the completion of 96 hours of course instruction in nonprofit management and commitment to the industry.

If you are interested in this scholarship opportunity, contact Sharolene Wackman, CAE via email by Oct. 16, 2017.

Early registration deadline for Winter Institute is Nov. 17, 2017.
