Designed to assist in personal and professional development, the scholarship will allow the recipient to attend a relevant international conference or to undertake further study relevant to their association’s industry.

The scholarship is offered under the Perth Convention Bureau’s Aspire Program, which was previously called the Scholarships and Awards Program and has been operating since 1999.

In 2012, the Aspire Program will see nine awards and two scholarships worth a total of $60,000 presented to individuals involved with the State’s academic and not-for-profit sectors.
