Scholarship information

Career Step was founded in 1992 by a single mother who used her medical transcription skills to support herself and her young daughter. She loved that she could support them both without putting her daughter in day care. In an effort to provide this same opportunity to others in similar situations, she created the first Career Step course.

We are now expanding that effort to help mothers by offering three $2,000 scholarships throughout the year to mothers who are returning to school to gain the skills they need to better support their families.
