Getting an A&P certificate isn’t cheap. Taking advanced courses once you have your A&P can also be quite expensive.

AMTSociety wants to help. It has announced the launch of AMTSociety AMTScholarships. The scholarships were created to financially assist those currently working towards their A&P certification as well as to assist those already certified in furthering their professional education and training.

The two scholarships, the William F. “Bill” O’Brien and Charles E. Taylor scholarships, are named after two aircraft maintenance professionals who have spent their careers promoting and advancing the skilled craft of aircraft maintenance professionals.

The two AMTScholarship winners will be announced in March at Aviation Industry Expo. The scholarship winners will be chosen by AMTSociety board members and the AMTSociety Executive Director.

The deadline for the applications is in a few days (December 15), but there is still time to get an application in. If you or someone you know could use some money to help pay for A&P school or to further your aircraft maintenance career, go to AMTSociety.org and click on the left hand button that says AMTSociety Scholarships to read more about the scholarships and to download application forms.
