Organization of American States (OAS)
Professional Development Scholarships Program
Invitation for Canadian Institutions to offer courses
Invitation for Canadian Institutions to offer courses
Canadian academic post-secondary institutions are hereby invited to make offers of training activities from which nationals of other Member States might benefit.
For more information on the presentation of proposals of Professional Development Courses, including a presentation form, please visit the OAS web site.
Please note that applications lacking the required documentation will not be considered.
Proposals will only be accepted and considered by the OAS General Secretariat when made through the National Liaison Offices (abbreviated to ONEs from Spanish) designated by the respective Governments.
For Canada, the ONE (National Liaison Office) is:
Canadian Bureau for International Education
220 Laurier West, Suite 1550, Ottawa ON K1P 5Z9 CANADA
Phone: (613) 237-4820 - Fax: (613) 237-1073
Email: scholarships-bourses@cbie.ca
The deadline for the presentation of proposals is September 30, 2008.
Individual offerings received after that date will be considered only if budgetary resources not obligated for courses proposed before that date exist, and only if sufficient time remains (normally six months) for the administration and financial procedures that must precede each course.
This program consists of a number of specialization courses offered by an OAS member State for the benefits of citizens of other OAS member States. On the one hand, member States offering specialization courses do so through their academic institutions, and with the collaboration of the OAS General Secretariat; on the other, fellowships are offered, through the OAS General Secretariat, to citizens of the other member States in order that they can participate in the offered training activities.
For a description of the program as it applies to scholarships offered and an overview of courses developed by OAS member States under this program, visit the Professional Development web page on this site.
