The Energy Workforce & Technology Council Scholarship Program has awarded $34,000 in scholarship funding for the 2023-24 school year to 54 students attending more than 37 different colleges and universities across the country.
Since its inception, the scholarship program has awarded more than $4 million to help dependents of association members attend institutions of higher learning, earn undergraduate and advanced degrees, and launch successful professional careers.
“Developing our future leaders, innovators and workforce, especially across our industry, is a critical mission we are committed to supporting,” said Molly Determan, President, Energy Workforce & Technology Council. “By providing financial assistance, this program helps remove barriers to higher education and promotes the development of a skilled workforce, whether in the energy industry or other industries – supporting our members is our mission.”
The scholarship program began in the 1970s to assist children of Member Companies in completing higher education. The program, which is administered by Energy Workforce, offers students four years of assistance for college, graduate school or accredited vocational training.
Energy Workforce chapters, as well as the national organization, hold fundraising events to provide the scholarships.
