Scholarship

Emerging Nation Leadership Development Scholarship

One of the strategic goals of ASET – The Neurodiagnostic Society is to foster relationships with the global neurodiagnostic community. The ASET Foundation is pleased to collaborate with ASET to fund a scholarship supporting travel from an emerging nation to bring a developing neurodiagnostic leader to the ASET Annual Conference.

The purpose of the International Leadership Scholarship is to bring a neurodiagnostic professional from an Emerging Nation, to the ASET annual conference, covering the cost of travel, lodging, meals and the conference registration fee.  The goal is to offer the experience of a multiple day immersion into ASET leadership, administration, education, exposure to credentialed technologists and neurodiagnostic leaders. This will provide opportunities to build key relationships which the scholarship recipient can then use to further neurodiagnostic practice, education and growth in their home country.  Applicants should be able to demonstrate a leadership role in their local and national community.
