Teamsters Canada Scholarship for Members
Teamsters Canada is proud to offer again four (4) scholarships of $2,500 to eligible members who wish to continue their education in their current field or expand into a different industry.
Unlike other scholarships, the Teamsters Canada Member Scholarship was created specifically for current members and not their children or financial dependents.
The program is perfect for members who wish to continue their education, sign up for driving courses or a trade school, or branch out into a different industry. Our scholarships are meant to help members afford tuition for post-secondary and certificate programs. The application process involves writing a short essay. The deadline is usually at the end of October 31.
