CPA Australia Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Scholarships
“CPA Australia offers up to five scholarships annually for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. The scholarship will assist recipients to meet the educational requirements needed to attain CPA status.
Scholarship recipients will be exempt from all CPA Program subject fees and a full three (3) years of Associate (ASA) level membership fees will be waived. The scholarships will be awarded each January and July to the best-qualified applicants based on their tertiary academic results.
Scholarships are effective from the date awarded and will be tenable for six years, subject to satisfactory progress by the recipient towards the completion of CPA Program. The scholarship does not require the recipient to render any service to the donor. However we would encourage and can facilitate you sharing your story to inspire others, if you are agreeable.”
