American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology 2011 Allied Health Scholarship Travel Awards
2011 will mark the fourth year of an opportunity for more allied health professionals to attend the AAAAI Annual Meeting and become more involved in the AAAAI. The Allied Health Professional Assembly will once again be awarding up to (10) $750 Allied Health Scholarship Travel Awards (which also will include complimentary registration to the meeting) to deserving allied health professionals working in the A/I specialty in order to enhance their ability to meet with their colleagues and learn from their experiences.
Application will be made via an online submission process of a written description of an interesting Allergic, Asthmatic, Respiratory or Immunologic case or program of NO MORE than 650 words (non research based). These descriptions will demonstrate how you, as an allied health professional, have been able to increase the quality of care that you and the A/I practice provide to patients. These descriptions could be of an educational program (in house or community based), a practice enhancement, or a clinical treatment situation. Each of the awardees will be recognized at 2011 AAAAI Annual Meeting during the AAAAI Allied Health Forum (Saturday, March 19, 2011) as well as you will be required to write a synopsis article of your submission, including outcomes, to be highlighted in future AAAAI Allied Health Web Resources.
To apply for this award, please complete the online application below. Deadline for submission of the application and case/program is October 29, 2010. Note: We will only accept those applications submitted through the online system below. Awardees will be notified in Mid November 2010, if they have been selected to receive one of these awards.
We encourage all A/I allied health professionals to apply for this excellent professional development opportunity. Its just another way of everyone working in A/I to continue to provide optimal patient care.
