Financial Aid Workshops for Educators
PHEAA's Higher Education Access Partners provide workshops both virtually and in-person throughout the Commonwealth. The workshops provide you with up-to-date information on financial aid for postsecondary education, give a general understanding of the financial aid process, and examine the available financial aid programs that make higher education more affordable for families.
Join us for a free workshop to learn more about:
- The upcoming 2025-26 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®)
- Federal financial aid programs
- Updates on the PA State Grant System
Please register at least 1 week prior to the date of the workshop you wish to attend. Upon registration, you will receive an email confirmation with workshop location, directions, and parking information.
At the end of the workshop, a link to a quiz will be provided to you that is required to receive Act 48 credits. To qualify, you must complete the quiz within 10 days of the workshop. If you meet the workshop attendance requirements and successfully complete the quiz, we will submit your hours to the PA Department of Education.
If you cannot attend a workshop or simply want to revisit content from a session, recordings are available. To view the event recordings, please contact your Higher Education Access Partner for a link.
We invite you to check out the webinar training calendar for other PHEAA online events or contact us to discuss your organization's needs.
