About this award
Get $1,000 for being a high school graduate in Saskatchewan who has completed the SYA program and is pursuing a career in the skilled trades.
You receive a $1,000 scholarship. As a scholarship, this money is yours to keep — there is nothing to repay. This is for you if you are a high school graduate in Saskatchewan who is dedicated to starting a career in the skilled trades. No deadline is posted publicly — before you start the application, check the Saskatchewan Apprenticeship and Trade Certification Commission (SATCC — the agency that manages trade certifications in the province)'s program page or call their office to confirm when applications open and close this year. Your school nominates you using a form sent by the SATCC. They choose approximately 100 scholarships each year based on your achievements and your dedication to the skilled trades. Scholarship certificates are made available for presentation at your graduation ceremony or another event. Ask the SATCC during your application how the funds are delivered to you after the ceremony so you can plan your cash flow. Renewal conditions aren't listed — if you're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with the SATCC whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
