Inspector Training School Educational Foundation (ITSEF) Scholarship
The Inspector Training School Educational Foundation (ITSEF) established a scholarship fund in 2015 to support students looking to launch or advance their careers in the hardwood lumber industry. This scholarship program is specifically for students who are not currently employed in the hardwood industry at the time of enrollment and plan to attend the traditional 8-week program in Memphis, TN.
ITSEF scholarships are awarded based on a combination of financial need, academic performance, and leadership potential. Scholarships can reimburse students up to the full course tuition.
To be considered, scholarship applications must be submitted at least 10 days prior to the start of the course. Take advantage of this opportunity to reduce your tuition costs and invest in your future in the hardwood industry.
