How does EMSAC's scholarship program work?
• Scholarships to the Colorado State EMS Conference are paid directly to
the attendee. EMT course scholarships are paid to the training
institution, but only after EMSAC receives notice of acceptance into the
course.
• The 2010-2011 scholarship cycle (for classes other than the Colorado
State EMS conference) is September 1, 2010 through August 31, 2011. This
is the period in which funds must be spent by the recipient (as long as
payment is made to the training site prior to August 31, 2011, the money
may be used for a class that begins after the August 31, 2011, deadline).
• An emergency fund is available in extreme situations, such as a rural
EMS agency loosing one of its four EMTs and must quickly send a new
volunteer to an initial class, but neither can afford to do so.
• Applications must be received by EMSAC by the first Friday of
September of each year.
