About this award

You can receive a $500.00 grant. As a grant, this money is yours to keep and you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are a Saskatchewan resident training to become a carpenter or construction electrician. You must apply by June 15, 2027. When you apply, ask Saskatchewan Polytechnic how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, the portal, or phone. Selection is based on your academic achievement (which counts for 75% of the score) and your career goals (which count for 25%). There is only 1 award available, so ask Saskatchewan Polytechnic how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Saskatchewan Polytechnic during your application how the money will reach you — some awards pay students directly, others apply funds to tuition. Confirm this so you can plan your cash flow. Renewal conditions aren't listed — if you're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Saskatchewan Polytechnic whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be a resident of Saskatchewan. You must be enrolled full-time in any level of Carpenter or Construction Electrician apprenticeship training at the Saskatchewan Polytechnic Prince Albert campus. You are not eligible if you have previously received the Prince Albert Construction Association Apprentice Award.
