"Through this scholarship, Dean's legacy of Photoshop education will live on as his influence, gift for teaching, and passion for quality are passed on each year to our nation's most dedicated educators in his name," said Scott Kelby, president of NAPP and the world's top-selling computer book author for 2004.
 
This scholarship will be awarded annually to a high school or college educator (nominated by his or her own students). The scholarship provides the recipient an opportunity to attend NAPP's annual convention, including round-trip airfare, hotel accommodations, and a full conference pass. This scholarship program was developed to honor Dean Collins' memory, and his lifetime of contributions to the worldwide Photoshop community.
