Empowering Educators Through Opportunity
“Learning is not attained by chance, it must be sought for with ardor and attended to with diligence.”
— Abigail Adams
💡 Financial Assistance & Scholarships
At NILD, we are committed to making our training programs accessible to as many passionate educators and professionals as possible. We recognize that financial circumstances vary, and we are proud to offer financial aid for individuals who demonstrate verifiable financial need.
📋 Needs-Based Financial Aid for Training
Applicants may request tuition assistance for eligible courses and workshops. Aid is awarded based on household income & size and supporting documentation is required as outlined in our Financial Assistance Policy.
Carefully review our Financial Assistance Policy then complete and submit the application form with required documents.
Applications must be submitted at least 30 days prior to the start of training. Discounts are limited and awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
🌟 Lifelong Learner Merit Scholarship
In addition to needs-based assistance, NILD also offers the Bridget Hughes Lifelong Learner Scholarship, a merit-based award given to individuals who demonstrate outstanding commitment to professional growth, educational excellence, and service to learners with unique needs.
This scholarship is open to applicants regardless of financial need. Recipients are selected based on a written statement, training history, and demonstrated impact. Applications are due by April 15th annually.
