CFDD Scholarship Guidelines
A. CFDD will award scholarships annually. Scholarship awards may be funded with proceeds (interest, dividends, and asset
appreciation) from the Scholarship Fund and/or by contributions made and received by March 31st.
B. In order to be eligible to receive a CFDD National scholarship fund award, the applicant must be a CFDD member in good standing
for at least six months at the time of submission and at the time of disbursement.
C. All scholarship applications must be received by CFDD National by March 15 of each year to be considered. If March 15 is a
Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the applications must be received on the first business day following the 15th.
D. An application must receive an average score of 65 in order to qualify for a CFDD National Scholarship.
E. Any recipient of a CFDD National Conference or NACM Credit Congress registration award must attend at a minimum of three (3)
conference educational sessions. Attendance will be verified using the system in place to record and document Continuing Education
Units with the NACM-National Education Department.
F. Self Study Scholarship Award recipients must complete the awarded course within 12 months of the date of receipt of course
material. Non-completion within 12 months may disqualify the member from future eligibility for National Scholarship awards.
G. A member is not eligible to receive a CFDD National Scholarship in the same category for two consecutive years. In an effort to
maximize the financial support CFDD can provide its members in our current economic climate, the standing rule prohibiting members
from receiving a scholarship in the same category two years in a row has been suspended.
H. A scholarship recipient must redeem their scholarship within 12 months of the award.
