BURLINGTON, Ont. -- Shell and the Heavy Duty Distributor Council of Canada are looking to award scholarships to six future fleet technicians.
Shell and the HDDC, a non-profit serving the heavy-duty aftermarket, will provide regional scholarships of $2,500 to students enrolled full-time and in their last year in a program or an apprenticeship relating to the field of heavy duty equipment.
With a shortage of technical workers in such an important industry, the Shell Rotella & HDDC Heavy Duty Technician Scholarship is aimed at supporting the next generation of skilled workers, says Shell.
The recipients will be chosen based on their academic merit, financial need, their reply to an essay question and their commitment to contributing to the future success of the trucking industry. One student will be selected for a scholarship from each of the following regions:
B.C.; Alberta/Northwest Territories/Yukon; Ontario; Quebec; Saskatchewan/Manitoba; Atlantic Provinces.
The application deadline is November 30, 2011.
