The Ohio Society of Association Executives (OSAE) is proud to partner once again with Institute for Organization Management (IOM), the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation’s professional development program for non-profit executives, in offering two $500 partial tuition scholarships to one of institute’s 2017 sites. The two scholarships, available to our members, will be awarded to students attending an 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 institute 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 institute has helped them build stronger organizations, become stronger business advocates and better serve their members. In addition, you will earn points towards your CAE or CCE certification as the 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 (ACCE).
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 OSAE Executive Director Jarrod Clabaugh via email by March 17, 2017. Early registration deadline for Midwest and Southeast Institute is April 21, 2017. Early registration deadline for West and Northeast Institute is May 26, 2017.
