BHECN Lifelong Learning Fund Video Transcript

What if funding for your professional development goals was within
reach?

It may surprise you to find out that as a student or professional in
behavioral health in Nebraska, you may have access to a fund
specifically designed to help you grow, learn, and advance in your
career.

The Lifelong Learning Fund. Here’s who qualifies and what’s covered.

The fund supports three categories: student development and training,
professional development opportunities, and statewide training events.

Whether you’re a student or a provisionally licensed or fully licensed
behavioral health practitioner, you can receive funding for conferences,
trainings, certifications, and test preparation for licensure exams.

Organizations and licensed practitioners can also apply to host a
statewide training event, either in person or virtually, focused on
expanding clinical skills and improving access to care across Nebraska.

Priority is given to applicants serving rural and public sector
communities and those pursuing evidence-based training methods.

To be eligible, you must be a Nebraska resident, an undergraduate or
graduate student, or a licensed behavioral health provider, and you must
not have received support through the Lifelong Learning Fund within the
past five years.

Only one application is allowed per activity.

Because when behavioral health professionals have access to better
training, communities across Nebraska benefit.
