The ASIS Foundation in
partnership with the ASIS Military Liaison Council (MLC) has established a new
scholarship to recognize outstanding ASIS military members for their duty
performance, community leadership, and self-improvement achievements and to
assist them in advancing their career by achieving ASIS board certification.
The ASIS Foundation/Military Liaison Council Certification Scholarship will
award funding to cover direct expenses associated with preparing for and
achieving an ASIS board certification (CPP, PCI, or PSP).
According to Joseph Rector, CPP, PSP, PCI,
co-chair of the ASIS Military Liaison Council, “Government funding for
professional certifications varies greatly among the military services, as it
also varies from nation to nation. As a
result, many military members must pay for certification costs out of their own
pockets. We are excited about this partnership with the ASIS Foundation which
provides an opportunity for military members, who are ASIS members, to pursue
and enhance their development in the security profession.”
