Schedulers & Dispatchers Training Scholarship

The NBAA Schedulers & Dispatchers Committee is dedicated to promoting education and training as a means for business aviation schedulers and dispatchers to enhance their careers. To support this position, NBAA offers current and aspiring schedulers and dispatchers the opportunity to receive training awards in conjunction with several sponsors — Airline Ground Schools, CornerStone Strategies LLC, FlightSafety International and MedAire, Inc. — and the NBAA GA Desk at the FAA Air Traffic Control System Command Center (ATCSCC).

Scholarship recipients will be announced at the NBAA 19th Annual Schedulers & Dispatchers Conference, to be held from January 14 to 16, 2008, in Long Beach, CA. They will be redeemable under the conditions established by NBAA and its sponsors, and are limited to a one-time maximum award per person per year. Scholarship recipients must complete all professional/educational training by January 2010, unless otherwise noted, or risk forfeit of the award. Recipients also are responsible for costs associated with the scholarship, such as travel and lodging expenses, unless otherwise noted.

A completed and signed application form must be accompanied by an essay, a resume and two letters of recommendation. See application form for details.

Applications must be received by NBAA on or before October 17, 2008. Direct all questions about this application to NBAA at (202) 783-9250 or info@nbaa.org.
