PHEAA Financial Aid Workshops for Educators – Sep 10

Posted by PHEAA on September 7, 2021

We are inviting you to attend our annual Financial Aid Workshop conducted by the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA).  This workshop is offered FREE of charge and will provide you with the latest information on financial aid for postsecondary education.  You will be provided with a workshop handbook, handouts and materials.

Due to the increasing cost of higher education, it is more important than ever for counselors and educators to understand the financial aid application process and the availability of financial aid for students. Federal grants and loans, the Pennsylvania State Grant and Special Programs, campus-based aid, financial literacy and emerging trends in student aid and the workforce will all be addressed during this vital training session.  If you are somewhat unfamiliar with financial aid, we suggest you review our 2021 workshop manual at prior to attending the workshop.

Workshops are being offered at 36 locations throughout the state during the months of September and October.  To view a list of dates and sites, and to register for the workshop of your choice, click here.

On-site check-in the day of the workshop will be conducted from 8:30 AM to 9:00 AM. Workshops will begin at 9:00 AM and conclude by 12:15 PM.

Please register at least one week prior to the date of the workshop you wish to attend.  Upon registration, you will receive an email confirmation with workshop location, directions and parking information.

PHEAA will no longer award Act 48 credits for our Counselor Workshops.  We will be providing all attendees with a letter confirming workshop attendance.  School staff may use the letter to submit for the three hours if they choose to do so.

We look forward to seeing you at our workshop.  Please share this invitation with any colleagues who may be interested but did not receive this email.  If you have any questions or need assistance with the registration process, please email us at PASSWorkshops@pheaa.org.
