Through this program, APSATS aims to:

• Increase access to specialised training and certification around the world.
• Expand the availability of compassionate, ethical, trauma-informed care for betrayed partners and families.
• Support professionals who are committed to serving their local communities.
• Foster a culturally rich and globally representative APSATS community.
• Encourage mutual learning, cultural humility, and diverse perspectives within the field.

Application Criteria Considerations:

• The applicant is based in a country or region where the standard APSATS training fee creates a significant financial barrier due to local income levels, currency exchange rates, purchasing power, or limited access to professional development funding.
• The applicant serves, or has a credible pathway to serving, partners, families, or communities where APSATS-informed care is currently limited or difficult to access.
• The applicant’s participation would help expand access to compassionate, ethical, trauma-informed, partner-sensitive care in an underserved region or community.
• The applicant demonstrates commitment to APSATS’ mission, values, and model of care.
• The applicant is at an appropriate professional stage to engage with the training and apply the learning responsibly within their scope of practice.
• The applicant would be unable to attend the training, or would face substantial difficulty attending, without financial support.

Scholarships are not awarded based on geography alone. APSATS considers both financial accessibility and the likely impact of the applicant’s participation on access to care in their community or region.
