Making the impossible possible
Rajesh Kumar Yadav has been making an impact in his native Nepal for nearly 10 years. But his dream of helping others spans borders. As a recipient of CPE's Build Your Own Career Scholarship, Yadav’s goal of overseeing a portfolio of development projects and programs on a global scale is now within reach. “The opportunity to pursue professional education despite financial restraints, travel limits and other professional commitments would not have been possible without this scholarship program.”
Help support deserving professionals
Our students usually aren’t eligible for federal student loans or public tuition assistance programs. The UC Davis CPE “Build Your Own Career” Scholarship Program helps ensure that all adults, regardless of socioeconomic status, have access to life-changing professional development opportunities.
