Postdoctoral Researcher Travel Award to ABRC
The goal of this award is to promote participation of postdoctoral researchers in the American Beekeeping Research Conference and American Association of Professional Apiculturists meetings. Postdoctoral researchers have very limited opportunities to apply for travel support at this most crucial time in their career, and this will allow them an opportunity to network with their peers contributing to their professional development.  AAPA will award UP TO $1000 to support travel for one Postdoctoral Researcher to ABRC 2019 in Phoenix, AZ.

Extension Activities Award
The goal of this award is to help support development of extension activities, outcomes of which are to be reported to the American Association of Professional Apiculturists either via written report or at the American Beekeeping Research Conference in 2020. While it is clear that extension and outreach activities are crucial for providing research-based education to stakeholders and public, extension educators usually have limited opportunities to apply for smaller amounts of money they sometimes need to successfully complete their activities. This is why AAPA will award UP TO $1000 to support purchase of supplies or for assistant salaries plus benefits for extension or outreach activities or development of extension and outreach materials. Travel will not be supported with this award. AAPA will award either one or multiple awards dependent on submitted applications (total amount disbursed for all awards will be $1000).
