ASI ‘SMART Company’ Scholarship Fund Blog

I would like to thank ASI very much for their scholarship to the FIA Skills 1 course in Brisbane.  I found all of the speakers very interesting and have received great support from people I met there as well as the speakers themselves.

I sincerely appreciate this opportunity to participate.  Thank you.

Yours sincerely

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your support and valued contribution towards the Work Certificate IV Project Management course attended to by Cherie Whitty.

Please find attached a summary report of the benefits received by The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners through completion of the course by Cherie Whitty.

It has provided multiple benefits to the College:

• improvement in efficiency with implementation of projects
• and improvement in the working knowledge of the principle definitions of project management, planning and control.

The true benefits of this course will be shown with the implementation of iMIS e-Series through the College and Cherie’s project management skill attained during the course to run this major project.  e-Series will allow for our customers to be able to purchase products and services offered by the College via on line services.

Dear Mr Ramsbottom 

It gives me great pleasure to write in thanks for awarding Ms Wendy Lewis of Guides Australia (Victorian Branch) a scholarship in the June 2006 round.

Wendy has joined the Centre of Philanthropy and Nonprofit Studies (CPNS) at the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) in Semester 2 2006 to study the BS39 Graduate Certificate in Business (Philanthropy & Nonprofit Studies).

Your generous funding of a student at the CPNS is a great investment in the nonprofit sector, as it is our mission “to bring to the community the benefits of teaching, research, technology and service relevant to philanthropic and nonprofit communities”.

For further information on the CPNS I have included some brochures on our course which you are welcome to distribute.

We welcome any further assistance from your organisation and thank you again for your support of our postgraduate study.

Yours sincerely

Professor Myles McGregor-Lowndes OAM
Director

I am writing to personally thank you and the other members of ASI’s management team for awarding me a scholarship to the FIA Madison Down Under Conference which will be held on 5-8 August 2006 in South Australia.

Without this scholarship, I would not have been able to attend MDU this year so I thank ASI for their generosity and commitment to the professional development of fundraisers through their ‘SMART Company’ Scholarship Fund.  It is wonderful to see a company placing so much importance on raising standards and training of those working in the fundraising profession.

I am particularly excited about participating in the Bequests Track as one of my responsibilities in this position is to establish, implement and manage a bequests program for Edith Cowan University.  I am confident this course will improve my knowledge, skills and expertise in the area of bequests/planned giving and provide the greatest opportunity for ECU’s bequests program to be successful.
