What is the purpose of the Via Experientia Scholarship Fund?

Its purpose is to encourage the participation of people living or working in Europe who are involved in experiential education but who cannot afford to attend the Via experientia long-term training course and who would benefit by taking part.

How does the Via Experientia Scholarship Fund work?

• The whole process is based on trust.
• The Fund is financed out of the fees paid by other participants.
• The Fund can award scholarships of up to 50% of the main fee.
• During the course we expect that applicants are willing to share their expertise. To be able to do so it is necessary that they are able to communicate in English.
• Applicants should apply by email following the guidelines below.
• Applications will be read by a trainers team.
• Decisions are usually made within two month before the Via experientia long-term training course starts.
