HRLA Scholarship Applications being accepted!
The Human Resource Leadership Association of Eastern Connecticut (HRLA) offers two sources of financial support to Members seeking to expand their knowledge in the field of Human Resources.
- The HRLA General Scholarship is for Members actively pursuing an undergraduate or graduate degree, or pursuing a certification through SHRM or HRCI. The recipient of this scholarship will be required to provide evidence of enrollment in a degree program or certification prep course, prior to receiving awarded funds.
- The Margot Larson Scholarship for HR Excellence supports Members seeking professional development opportunities through SHRM- or HRCI-approved seminars, conferences or similar programs.
This scholarship was created in memory of Margot Larson, a founding and lifetime member of HRLA, and past President of the organization. Margot passed away after a long battle with lung cancer in 2016. She dedicated her professional life to Human Resources, and was recognized for her HR contributions throughout the state of Connecticut, working in the private sector and as an HR consultant. She was the second President of HRLA, and was an author, coach, business leader, mentor, and friend to all who knew her. Her influence lives on through this scholarship.
