About this opportunity

AWAM’s scholarship program supports aviation maintenance education and professional growth through a diverse set of sponsor awards. Although the association centers women in maintenance, the current program notes that many opportunities are open more broadly to students, technicians, military transitioners, and applicants of any gender.

Who can apply

Applicants must be AWAM members and satisfy both the program’s basic documentation rules and the sponsor criteria for each selected scholarship. Opportunities are not limited to women or students; some are open to active technicians, transitioning military members, and applicants of any gender.

What the award may cover

Scholarships support the diverse skills used in aviation maintenance and may include education funding, tools, technical or manufacturer courses, certification-related support, and professional development.

How to apply

Join or renew AWAM, review the current scholarship flyer, select no more than the permitted number of awards, and submit the required résumé, essays, recommendations, transcripts or certificates as one correctly ordered PDF.

  • Verify the current deadline and every eligibility requirement.
  • Confirm how funds are paid and when they must be used.
  • Prepare transcripts, certificates, logbook totals, references, and essays early.
  • Save the confirmation and a complete copy of your submission.
