Ignite Your Skills: Apply for an Employee Enrichment Grant
How the EEG Program Works
Employee Enrichment Grants (EEG) are professional development grants of up to $1,000 awarded for registration fees for seminars, workshops and conferences not funded by the district. (Note that this program does not cover association memberships, travel expenses, or other costs.)
All permanent district employees are eligible to apply for an Employee Enrichment Grant. Criteria for consideration include the content of the seminar/conference/workshop and the potential impact for students or other teachers/employees, as well as the quality of the application submitted by the grant applicant.
Applications are initially reviewed by your campus or department administrator; once she or he has approved, the application is then evaluated by a committee of ISF volunteers. (See the “How to Apply” section below for further information.)
Here's What Previous EEG Recipients Say:
Important Dates
Employee Enrichment Grants are awarded from August through July
Applications are due by 11:59 p.m. on the 10th of each month.
NOTE: All of our funds for the year have been allocated, we will reopen applications in January.
How to Apply
- Funding tis available on a first-come, first-serve basis; therefore, early applications— submitted at least two months in advance of registration fee due date—are highly encouraged.
- EEG funds are not awarded retroactively—in other words, you cannot receive funding for reimbursement of conference fees.
- Note that ISF will award no more than two grants per campus/department to attend the same conference on the same date(s).
