AMCT Bursary: The Association of Corporate Treasurers (ACT) offers bursaries to assist students from developing countries who cannot gain sponsorship for their studies, to study for the AMCT Diploma in Treasury - the ACT's core treasury qualification which leads to associate membership.
Bursaries are available to cover the cost of the course fee for stage two - CertITM and the course fee for the stage three papers (excluding CertICM).
Students in receipt of the bursaries will also receive The Treasurer magazine on a monthly basis, but do not have to pay the annual subscription fee.
The bursary scheme does not include teaching or re-sit fees.
Bursary Application Eligibility Criteria:
You are eligible to apply for a bursary if you meet the following criteria:

For the purposes of this scheme, a ‘developing country’ is a country with a GDP per capita of less than $12,500.
