This program offers owners and employees of Heart of the Valley Chamber member businesses the opportunity to apply for grants which will cover the cost of continuing education that will be of benefit to their particular business and improve their ability to perform effectively in their current position. These grants fund any thing from computer courses to credit courses toward a degree. We will consider applications for any work-related course the member needs. The possibilities are unlimited. Funds to support this member benefit are raised through the Chamber's Golf Outing and Taste From the Heart auctions and raffles.
Grants are evaluated by a committee established for that purpose and are awarded to owners or employees of a Heart of the Valley Chamber member business in good standing. Primary criteria for approving a request will be the anticipated impact of the educational opportunity on the applicant's ability to perform more effectively on the job. A newly formed Scholarship and Grant Committee of the Chamber evaluates applications and approves awards.
