About this award

You can receive a $3,500 scholarship. This is a grant, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. There is 1 scholarship available. This is for you if you are a woman pursuing a career in the electrical industry and want to make a significant impact in the field. You must apply by June 11, 2027. When you apply, ask Sales Outsource Solutions (through the Electro-Federation Canada scholarship program) how and when you will hear back — whether by email, phone, or through the application portal.

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 Sales Outsource Solutions (through the Electro-Federation Canada scholarship program) whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
