Support for Scholarly Events

The mission of CSSE is to advance knowledge and inform practice in educational settings. Our major scholarly event is the yearly conference at Congress. However, CSSE is also anxious to encourage meetings throughout the year and provides seed money (Maximum $2500 per event) for short term scholarly events that support its mission.
