About this award

You can receive a $5,000 scholarship to help pay for your education. There are 40 awards of $5,000 each available this year. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are an aspiring tradesperson looking to enter a high-demand career in the skilled trades. The February 28, 2026 deadline has passed, so ask DEWALT (Stanley Black & Decker) when the next round opens. The award does not say when you will be notified of the results — ask DEWALT (Stanley Black & Decker) during your application how and when you will hear back. Selection criteria aren't published — ask DEWALT (Stanley Black & Decker) how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask DEWALT (Stanley Black & Decker) 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 DEWALT (Stanley Black & Decker) whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Tips for applying

StrategyAvoid waiting until the February deadline to apply. Since this is a partnership with the SkillPointe Foundation, ensure your application highlights both your academic goals and your desire for hands-on training.
RealismAvoid assuming this is a guaranteed grant. With only 40 awards available across two countries, you should apply for several other trade bursaries to ensure your tuition is covered.
