Scholarships

Trade school
costs money.
Get some help.

A scholarship for people entering the trades, and for working contractors paying for their own continuing education. Applications are not open yet — this is the waitlist.

Straight answer on where this stands: the programme is being set up and is not accepting applications yet. There is no fund total to quote and nobody has received an award, because we are not going to publish numbers that are not real. Join the waitlist and you will hear from us the day it opens — that is the whole promise.

Who it is for

Two kinds
of people

People starting out

If you are enrolled in or considering a trade programme — concrete, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, welding, heavy equipment, or anything else on the tools — the scholarship is meant to take a bite out of tuition, tools or certification costs.

Contractors already working

Licences and certifications expire, and the continuing education that renews them comes out of your own pocket. Legacy contractors keeping their credentials current are eligible too. You do not have to be a customer, and being one does not help your application.

What we will ask for

When applications open, expect a short form: who you are, which trade, where you are studying or working, and a few hundred words on what you are trying to do. Nothing you have to pay someone to help you write.

We will never ask for a fee to apply. Any scholarship that charges an application fee is not a scholarship.
