IAP2 USA Debra Duerr Certification Scholarship Application
Debra believed strongly in public engagement; it was the focus of her urban planning degree. She was a charter member of the International Association for Public Participation (IAP2), served on its US Board of Directors and was a founder of the Grand Canyon Chapter.

Debra served on the IAP2 USA Professional Certification Task Force since 2013. The Debra Duerr Memorial Scholarship will allow Debra’s legacy to continue to support the program she was so passionate about.

The Scholarship is designed to reduce barriers to professional certification and targets professionals who will increase diversity within the universe of people who have earned the distinction of professional certification. It seeks to make professional certification possible for anyone worthy of the credential.

Applicants who need financial support to complete the certification program are encouraged to apply for the scholarship before applying for certification.

Completion of IAP2 Foundations Program remains a pre-requisite for certification.

Certification applicants must successfully complete the three-step certification process. Receipt of a scholarship will not assure successful award of certification.
