Do you have unused end-of-year funds that have been allocated for professional development and are set to expire at the end of your fiscal year?
Instead of losing those resources, you can invest unused monies from this year’s budget for future training expenses or memberships through NIRSA.

The NIRSA prepay program allows you to purchase vouchers now for any denomination (greater than $200) and we’ll then credit your professional or institutional account. NIRSA vouchers—valid through June of 2015—are transferrable and can be redeemed for annual conferences, institute or webinar registrations, and even membership dues payments. Don’t forget that dues increase on July 1, 2014, so take advantage of lower rates through the end of this month!
