IFEA Education Foundation

The IFEA Educational Foundation was formed in 1993 with a mission of ensuring that the IFEA has resources to fulfill it's own educational mission. The IFEA has worked very hard over the years to continue raising the level of professionalism in our industry, along with the level of recognition and awareness for the industry and those who work in it by the media and the general public. Through the provision of: scholarships, Certified Festival & Event Executive (CFEE) Program, IFEA Bookstore and Resource Center, the funding of top quality speakers, educational publications, technology and electronic training services, translation services and more, the IFEA Foundation is helping the IFEA to achieve their vision of a globally united industry and an association that supports and enables festival and event professionals around the world.

The IFEA Foundation is an independent 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization. Donations to the foundation are tax-deductible in the United States. The Foundation is managed by an elected and non-compensated board of Directors.
