2019 Education Awards for member's dependent family

  • Print
Details
Last Updated on Tuesday, 27 August 2019 09:32

The SPFA is once again pleased to offer education awards to support post-secondary studies of faculty family members. The Education Awards Committee is working with SaskPolytech’s Donor and Alumni Relations (DAR) office again this year to assist with the application and award distribution process.

Saskatchewan Polytechnic Faculty Association Awards are $1000 each and are awarded to faculty family members (as per the benefits package definition) who are enrolled for fall 2019 in a recognized Canadian post-secondary institution. Applicants from last year who did not receive an award, but are still in post-secondary studies, are encouraged to apply again. Previous recipients of SPFA awards are ineligible.

NOTE: The External Awards (attending post-secondary institutions other than Sask Polytech) have all been selected for the 2019-20 academic year.  Internal Awards (taking courses at Sask Polytech) are still available.

If you family member applied and hasn't heard about the status of their application, campus contact information can be found on the Student Awards website under the "Contact Us" tab.

The committee thanks all applicants.  For those who are continuing post-secondary studies into the 2020-21 academic year and were not recipients this year, another application can be made in the spring.  There is a limit of one award per person in a lifetime.
