Maine Community Foundation, Inc. Short-term Credential Award is a type of adult learner scholarship. This scholarship is for non-traditional students who want to change their life for the better through education and training. The scholarship supports a range of training, including two- and four-year colleges and universities, completing a certificate and other non-degree programs, or attempting a self-directed learning experience with a clear goal. Applicants are eligible to apply if their program lasts one semester or less; and at the end of their program, they will have a certificate or workplace credential, not a degree. Maine Community Foundation will not fund programs that have already started or will start before a decision is made. Please submit an application as early as possible. Incomplete applications will not be accepted. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
