The Dscoop + The FGCE Grant Program is supported by HP Industrial Print and administered in partnership with The Foundation for Graphic Communication Education. The funds are available to support travel, learning, and professional development opportunities that connect students with the global print community.
Grants may be used to cover conference registration, lodging, airfare, or ground transportation, and related educational expenses. Funds will be reimbursed after travel or program participation, once The FGCE has received and verified the expense documentation.
Our first funding cycle helped students experience the real-world impact of the printing industry by attending Edge Rockies March 8-11, 2026, in Denver, CO.
Edge 2026 is one important moment, but it’s not the only opportunity. The Dscoop Grant Program continues beyond Edge Rockies. Students are encouraged to request funds that can support their education, career growth, or professional development, even after the event. This could include future Dscoop events, learning opportunities, or experiences that help them move closer to their career goals.
Students who join Dscoop can stay connected year-round through:
Once events are over, the connection doesn’t stop — Dscoop remains a place to keep learning, asking questions, and staying close to the industry.
