Scholarship Opportunties

The South Carolina Nursing Education Simulation Alliance (SCNESA) is proud to support the growth of simulation educators through targeted scholarship opportunities designed to advance learning and professional engagement.

​

We offer three scholarship types: funding to obtain a simulation certificate, support to attend national conferences such as INACSL or IMSH, and SCNESA membership scholarships for students interested in simulation. Each opportunity is designed to help reduce barriers and expand access to meaningful professional development.

​

With the exception of student membership scholarships, applicants must be active SCNESA members in good standing, with current annual dues of $25. We encourage you to take advantage of these opportunities and continue advancing your work in simulation.
