On behalf of the Academy of Distinguished Educators, the Office of Faculty Affairs and Faculty Development, and the Huffington Department of Education, Innovation & Technology, we are pleased to announce a new collaboration to support educational grants and scholarship. Starting this academic year (2024–25), the Academy will award the Norton Rose Fulbright (NRF) Education Grant in the amount of $15,000 as part of the Education Hackathon competition. With the addition of the NRF grant, the 4th Annual Education Hackathon will be the first in its series to fund two innovative projects: up to $25,000 for first place, and now $15,000 for second place.
As part of this new award process, the NRF grant will remain open to educators of all levels of professional development; however, applicants no longer need a Norton Rose Fulbright award to qualify.

We look forward to seeing all the amazing pitches at this and future Education Hackathons!
