Wound care is a complex specialty that requires a higher level of expertise than what is offered in the required clinician curriculum. The number of chronic wounds grows exponentially on an annual basis. Education is the key component. Without continuing education, advanced knowledge, and appropriate use, the advances made in treatments and modalities are useless.
The International Alliance of Wound Care Scholarship Foundation was established to provide support for those clinicians who want to advance their knowledge in wound care by enhancing their education and obtaining certification.
3 OSTOMY MANAGEMENT SPECIALIST (OMS) SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE!
IAWCSF is excited to announce that three scholarships in the amount of $1,500.00 each are being offered to clinicians for education and certification fees to obtain the OMS credential. Each scholarship will cover the certification exam cost and up to $1,120 toward the course fee.
Scholarships will be awarded on need and merit.
Scholarships will also be based on career goals and growth that focus on wound care.
IAWCSF will award scholarships up to $1500.00 (USD) for each chosen individual that must include education and certification.
