Why we ran this

This scholarship was awarded in support of HOBA’s mission to democratise business transformation — to make professional transformation skills accessible and affordable for practitioners everywhere, not just large organisations. We also used this opportunity to introduce our new 12-month and 24-month payment plans, designed to make certification and lifelong learning financially accessible without compromising quality.
