"Iowa Community Colleges Support The Way Up" Scholarship Experiences

I am so grateful and honored to have received the Way Up Scholarship. Receiving the scholarship allowed me to attend the conference and meet all kinds of incredible and inspiring women from all over the state of Iowa. My time at the conference was so rewarding and I took so much away from the conference that I can not only apply to my professional life but also my personal life. I’m so happy I was introduced to this conference, I cannot wait to attend many more The Way Up Conferences in the future!

"I want to thank the Way Up Conference for the scholarship to the wonderful two day conference. It was an amazing two days of collaborating with other women and learning new strategies in addition to gaining information about our next generation of students coming forward into our colleges. The wealth of knowledge gained in this small amount of time will be beneficial in my current career and in the future. Thank you again and I look forward to attending this conference in the future and hope to bring other’s along too." Christine Howard (Indian Hills Community College)

I want to thank The Way Up Conference Committee for selecting me as the recipient of the 2018 “Iowa Community Colleges Support The Way Up” Scholarship. Without this wonderful opportunity, I would have missed out on the best conference that I have ever attended. I enjoyed the engaging and relevant presentations, opportunities to network with women at all stages of their careers, and the DELICIOUS food! I hope to be able to attend again next year!

Thank you for this wonderful award. I found the conference incredibly valuable and uplifting! I will definitely try to attend next year.
