Professional Development Award Program

The Lake Trust Credit Union Professional Development Award Program kicked off funding for Michigan Teachers starting February 1 of this year.

The Professional Development Award Program was established in 2010 and provides a resource for today’s educators to continue enhancing their teaching skills, while supporting their students’ financial and career goals to achieve a bright and exciting future in Michigan. Last year, we were able to help teachers share information with over 4,000 students.

Spread the word to all those MS/HS Business Teachers, K-12 School Counselors, and Family and Consumer Science Educators within Lake Trust’s 35-county membership areas, that you know who would like to attend a school related conference. 

Upcoming Conference dates:

·    MCAN - April 13 – Cost $50

·    MSCA Spring Conference – April 25 – Eastern Michigan University $75 - $125

Counselors can register here: http://www.mich-sca.org/
