The Diversity in 9-1-1 Leadership Program provides scholarships to equip new and diverse voices with the skills, knowledge, and training necessary to advance to upper-level positions in 9-1-1 agencies and become tomorrow’s leaders.

Thanks to major support from T-Mobile, RapidDeploy, OnStar, and Microsoft, the program will provide seventy-five scholarships to NENA’s multi-day leadership and management courses to facilitate the advancement of under-represented populations within the 9-1-1 community.

The scholarships will increase the number of diverse participants in NENA’s three flagship education offerings: the Center Manager Certification Program, Center Supervisor Program, and Center Training Officer Program. The program is jointly administered by NENA’s Education Advisory Board and the NENA Diversity & Inclusion Special Committee.

The next application window for this scholarship program will open in Winter 23/24.
