RICHFORD, VT — Northern Tier Center for Health (NOTCH) is please to share that it is now accepting applications to the NOTCH Scholarship for Career Advancement for the 2025-2026 academic year.
Now in its second year, the NOTCH Scholarship fund was developed to support individuals in Northwestern Vermont who are pursuing continuing education to initiate, advance or retain expertise in their career field. Four scholarships will be awarded annually up to $2,500 each. Last year, four local community members received scholarship awards to help finance expenses related to their educational programs.
NOTCH will accept applications through April 18th, 2025, and announce awards in May of 2025.
Who Is Eligible to Apply?
This scholarship program is for anyone who is interested in advancing their career, whether they are a high school senior or already have an existing degree and/or workforce experience. The scholarship program aims to encourage continuing education for individuals interested in building or elevating their professional skills and expertise in a variety of fields that serve the local area.
The scholarship award may be used to finance college tuition fees, certification training and/or programs, professional licensing programs (e.g. commercial driver’s license), and other continuing education pathways for any field of employment. Scholarship awards will be disbursed directly to the recipients’ educational institutions, which may trigger overpayment and credit or refund to those who paid in full prior to award notification. Previous awardees are not eligible to apply.
