applying for Vector Security Networks Loss Prevention Foundation (LPF) scholarships must
do so before the March 31, 2019 deadline!
Applications can be submitted via the Vector
Security Networks website at

The
scholarships provide financial support to loss prevention professionals - or
those who have an interest in loss prevention - seeking to obtain LPQ and LPC
certifications. Vector Security Networks began awarding the scholarships in 2009 in
support of career development and continuing education for professionals in this
important and rapidly-growing industry.
Vector Security Networks has awarded 231
scholarships totaling $233,460 since the program began in 2009.
The scholarships cover all course and examination fees for retail loss
prevention professionals who wish to obtain LPF's Loss Prevention Qualified (LPQ)
or Loss Prevention Certified (LPC) certifications.
In 2012, the scholarship program was expanded into Canada and will continue this
year as well. A total of 10 LPQ and 10 LPC scholarships will be awarded to
U.S.-based professionals, while another five LPC scholarships will be awarded to
Canadian-based professionals.
Anyone currently in the loss prevention industry, or has an interest in the
industry, may apply for an LPQ scholarship. Those applying for the LPC
scholarship must meet certain eligibility requirements. Detailed information can
