The ASPE Scholarship Program

---

The American Health Sciences Institute and the rest of the ASPE family of training companies are offering training scholarships to assist unemployed professionals


Today’s economy is providing both hardship and opportunity for all Americans. Hundreds of thousands of workers are competing for a limited number of openings. Now more than ever, it is important to stand out in the crowd.

However, many Americans have taken our current settings and made the best of them. They are the ones seizing this opportunity to transition into new careers or roles.

In either case, one way to accomplish these goals is by extending your current skill set through training. Without employer backing to cover these costs it can put a hefty strain on already tight personal budgets. Recognizing this dilemma, ASPE is offering a $350,000 scholarship program, which will run from September 1, 2009 thru February 28, 2010 for all public and online courses (some exclusions apply).

The scholarship will offset costs for unemployed students looking for training to make them more marketable to potential employers or to extend their current skill set in order to aid their job hunt.

No matter the cost of the course, scholarship winners will be able to register for only $350 and can take up to 3 courses with ASPE. All classes must be taken by February 28, 2010.

Cancellation Policy

Cancellations received less than 30 days prior to the start date of class will be subject to a $100 administrative fee. You may cancel your reservation by providing ASPE with written notice via email at customerservice@aspeinc.com. Cancelled enrollments will be issued a credit valid for one year from the original course start date. Scholarship funds are non-transferable to another class without ASPE approval and non-refundable. No-shows will forfeit the scholarship fund and thus will not be able to transfer the funds to another class or be eligible for a refund. Only one reenrollment opportunity is allowed per person.
