Lifetime Recognition for Outstanding Academic Achievements
Sigma Beta Delta membership provides recognition for a lifetime. Because the Society is recognized for honoring scholastic excellence in business, it is appropriate to include Sigma Beta Delta membership on one’s resume. Employers throughout the country will recognize your outstanding academic achievements.
Scholarship Awards Program
Sigma Beta Delta members are eligible to compete for the Society’s scholarship awards. The Society awards $1,000 and $1,500 scholarships annually to over thirty outstanding student members to assist them in continuing their education. Click here to find out more about this program.
Higher Level of recognition in Federal Employment
Did you know that members of Association of College Honor Societies (ACHS) meet one of the requirements for entrance at the GS-7 level in federal employment? Most new employees enter at the GS-5 level or lower. Citation on the application is required.
However, applicants must meet all of the requirements as described in the particular Federal Job Announcement.
Internships
Sigma Beta Delta offers internships through Nationwide Insurance and because SBD is a member society of the Association of College Honor Societies, members may qualify for internship scholarships with the Washington Internship Institute, The Fund for American Studies, The Washington Center of Internships and Academic Seminars, and The PhD Project.

Networking Opportunities
Sigma Beta Delta campus chapters can assist in advancing the career opportunities of members.

The chance for Sigma Beta Delta student and alumni members to network with business professionals places them a step ahead of the employment competition.
