Steven Garfinkel Scholarship Program

THE 38th Board of Directors, in 2002, established the Steven Garfinkel Scholarship to assist security professionals with their continuing education in the security field. Up to two scholarships are awarded each year, and payments are made directly to the learning institution. This scholarship is open to both NCMS members and non-members.

NCMS awards two scholarships each year in honor and memory of the late Steven Garfinkel, former Director of the Information Security Oversight Office (ISOO).

The NCMS Board of Directors established the Steven Garfinkel Scholarship to assist security professionals with their continuing education in the industrial security field.

The scholarship requires the applicant be a full-time undergraduate student or currently employed in a security-related position in a commercial company, the US government, or the US military. In addition, applicants must be currently enrolled in an accredited college or university. The scholarship is open to both members and non-members and the deadline for submissions is May 15th each year.
