Why RPS?

ACT's Recognition Program Services is committed to providing you the best program possible. We work hard to maximize each component of your competition to ensure an unbiased, principled, repeatable process with stellar customer service.

Work with experts

ACT is a name you can trust.

When you use RPS, you have access to all other ACT departments through our experienced program managers, allowing collaboration with educational and social researchers, technology experts, or our publications department. This expansion of available resources will stretch your scholarship management dollars.

Choose a solution that matches your needs

Scholarships and recognition program competitions, tuition reimbursement programs, and loan repayment programs can be used to support:

Marketing initiatives
Employee incentive programs
Educational assistance for children of employees/union members
Recruitment for a trained workforce
Community relations

We care. It shows.

RPS provides exceptional service flexibility, tailoring programs specifically to meet your goals. The comprehensive portfolio of services enables you to select the consultative and operational assistance you need to launch, maintain, or expand your program without accepting services you don't need.

Save money and gain quality

Most scholarship programs are cyclical; staff will not be needed to manage the competition outside the program dates. RPS can manage those staffing needs without passing the cost along to you.

Outsourcing scholarship or recognition program management makes sense! It will:

Reduce your overhead through staff and administrative costs
Increase credibility through unbiased, third-party evaluations
Provide competition results that are fair and repeatable
Guarantee consistency in program management
Allow you to concentrate on your core mission
