Since 1997, more than $700,000 has been awarded through this program. A separate S&D Training Scholarship Program, launched in 2004, offers opportunities for scholarship recipients to gain access to hands-on teaching initiatives.
NBAA offers several scholarships to promote professional development and business aviation careers.
