Scholarships
As part of PNAA’s commitment to workforce development, we have maintained a scholarship fund since 2009. Eligible students enrolled in participating aerospace programs are granted scholarships of a minimum of $1,000. The program has grown substantially since its inception, and we were able to award $34,000 in scholarships at the 2024 Aerospace Conference. Since PNAA began their scholarship program, they have raised over $393,000, helping more than 200 students pursue their dream of entering the aerospace industry.
