Event Scholarships
Providing equal educational opportunities to build the next generation of home performance professionals
The Mike Rogers Memorial Scholarship Fund allows us to offer scholarships for BPA events and provide free access to our national and regional conferences for those in financial need. So far, we've awarded over $100,000 in scholarships to nearly 200 recipients. Please note that these scholarships do not cover travel or accommodation expenses.
In Memory of Mike Rogers
In December 2018, the building performance industry lost a dear friend. We are paying tribute to one of our most tireless advocates and greatest contributors to the home performance industry by establishing the Mike Rogers Memorial Scholarship Fund. Mike was passionate about establishing a strong, diverse, and qualified workforce.
Primary Criteria for Scholarship Awards
- Diversity in regards to race, gender, and age.
- Financial need.
- Whether the applicant has attended association events in the past. Priority will be given to first-time attendees.
“I can’t run our program back home without knowing how everything works but conferences are an added expense—I’m grateful for this scholarship. I’ve learned a lot here.”
