Scholars Program

WGI Scholars Program:

Ideas, musings, suggestions and maybe some creative doodles!

Just some thoughts…

3 interest areas: Mental Health; Education, Business

Practicum Scholarship

Applicant can apply for scholarship if they have completed a basic week. Application would be a proposal that would include 1)Interest area of research or teaching interest outlined 2) Plan to incorporate CT/RT in professional field 3) Contract with Practicum Supervisor

This would be a scholarship to reduce the Practicum cost to the applicant (to 0 cost). Practicum Supervisor would wave fee to scholar that is chosen. That Practicum Supervisor would be reimbursed annual WGI Membership fee, advertising fee and listing fee.

All Faculty would vote on the application.

Advanced Week Scholarship

Scholarship for Advanced Week. Same requirements as for Practicum Scholarship. The instructor must be a different instructor than Basic Week and the instructor must agree to a no-fee contract for that scholar. Same compensation plus WGI to waive fee of 100$ to instructor.

Eventually, I would like to see us award theses scholarships in each field; education, mental health and business.

In addition, I would like to see this award extended to Basic Instructors, Advanced, etc.

We need to announce these awards at our conference and advertise the competition on the website and in the professional areas we subscribe to; ACA, NCC, etc.

Any thoughts??
