Purpose
Hosted annually by the University of Maryland at College Park, the National Housing Training Institute (NHTI), has accommodated over 600 attendees since the first summer, 1991. The original concept that still holds true today was to establish an intense professional development experience for younger professionals that were 3-5 years in the housing field and looking to continue their career in housing. NHTI provides each participant with the opportunity to meet and interact with other colleagues as well as develop a professional development plan. As the field of college and university housing evolves, the Institute seeks to provide housing professionals with the necessary skills and competencies to meet the current and future demands of the profession.
What is the Award
NWACUHO has set aside $1000 to be split equally to those that are accepted to the program.
Eligibility
Scholarships are available for attendees who belong to NWACUHO Member institutions. NWACUHO requires that award winners submit an article for the Fall edition of Soundings and encourages those that attended to share their experience with other new professionals at the subsequent annual conference.
How Many Recipients are awarded the Scholarship
NWACUHO does not determine the acceptance to the program, rather we find out from NHTI who has been selected and then we help offset the costs.
