Purpose

URMIA offers educational conferences two times per year: regional conferences in March and April and the annual conference taking place in the September/October timeframe. These events offer attendees continuing education, networking, and opportunities to connect with businesses that work with college and university risk management and insurance professionals.

Regional conference scholarships are intended to assist URMIA institutional members who require financial assistance to attend their first URMIA conference. The scholarship covers the registration fee for one regional conference.

  • The individual’s job title and responsibilities are directly related to some aspect of higher education risk management.

  • The individual’s direct supervisor supports this opportunity.
