Candidates must have a commitment to DEI and an interest in pursuing a career in strength and conditioning. The applicant must not have won this award twice previously. International applicants may apply. Applicants can not be a current member of the NSCA Foundation Board of Directors, Scholarship Committee, serving as a Scholarship Reviewer, NSCA Board of Directors, NSCA DEI Committee (including DEI Committee Leadership and Education Taskforce Groups), or an NSCA/NSCA Foundation affiliate employee or employee's family member.
