Skin, Bones, Hearts & Private Parts, a prominent provider of continuing medical education (CME), has announced a new scholarship program aimed at easing the financial burden for adult learners enrolled in Nurse Practitioner (NP), Physician Assistant (PA), and Registered Nurse (RN) programs at accredited universities in the United States. Four scholarships of $500 each are available to assist with expenses such as tuition, books, and program fees.
To apply, students must submit their application through Bold.org and provide insight into their motivation for pursuing advanced education, as well as describe how the scholarship will personally benefit them. The application period runs until April 20, 2026, and winners will be announced on May 21, 2026.
“Pursuing a career as an NP, PA, or RN requires years of rigorous study and a major financial commitment,” said Chuck Dillehay, creator of Skin, Bones, Hearts & Private Parts. “Our four annual scholarships are designed to ease that burden and empower students to continue their academic journey.”
Since its founding in 2011, Skin, Bones, Hearts & Private Parts has grown into one of the most popular and fastest-growing CME events in the country. To date, 23,674 nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and physicians have participated, learning from 149 speakers at 97 CME conference sites and earning more than 600,000 CME credit hours.
The introduction of this scholarship underscores the organization’s commitment to supporting the next generation of healthcare professionals. By providing financial assistance, the program aims to help alleviate the cost barriers that often deter students from pursuing advanced degrees in nursing and physician assistant fields. This initiative is particularly significant given the ongoing demand for qualified healthcare providers across the United States.
