“Since 2011, when this Fund began awarding these individual grants, 22 instructors have received financial help to attend the Instructor Certification Program," said Jenny Johnson, TDF's Executive Director. “The impact of these grants is being felt across the country, from the instructors down to their students. What an amazing gift from the Barnett family.”
Instructors attending any portion of the Instructor Certification Program, including the workshops, pre-certification, and testing, can use individual grants through this Fund. Individual grants are awarded twice per year and the next deadline for applications is February 1, 2015.
Additionally, five $1,000 grants are available to GMOs that are organizing an instructor education event. The funds can be used to offset some of the expenses involved in conducting a USDF Instructor Certification Program, or to organize a general educational event for area instructors. These applications must be received at least 90 days prior to the event.
