Unions.org is proud to announce a new Union Scholarship Program.
Think about it!
You can receive a scholarship up to $2000 and be trained by professionals in many types of trades across the country. To learn more about union apprenticeship programs available to you log on to Apprenticeship Training Programs. We are offering scholarships to assist the winners with funds to achieve their goals.
What is the purpose?
The Apprenticeship Scholarship Program is designed to both reward and encourage union apprenticeship trainees of the professional hands-on training they will receive through union apprenticeship programs along with assisting them financially to cover the cost of their training supplies and materials.
How many Apprenticeship Scholarships will be awarded?
Up to four (4) Apprenticeship Scholarships will be awarded each year.
What does up to $2000 scholarship mean?
The maximum total scholarship award each year is $2000. If two scholarships are awarded, by the committee, each scholarship amount will be $1000. If only one scholarship is awarded, the amount will be $2000. Number of scholarships awarded each will be decided by the unions.org committee based on the number of qualified applicants. The committee reserves the right to change the number of scholarships awarded at any time prior to announcing the Apprenticeship Scholarship winner(s).
Who chooses the recipient of the Apprenticeship Scholarship?
A panel of union management leaders chosen by Unions.org at random will select and vote on the applicants for their area.
The deadline for applications for the 2006-2007
Apprenticeship Awareness Scholarship Program deadline is October 15, 2006. All apprenticeship students who have been enrolled for at least three months in an apprenticeship program are eligible for the award.
We look forward to seeing your application!
