About Us

The CETA Education Foundation is a separately incorporated charitable organization for the purposes of scholarship awards to students of CETA members, their employee's and families, member education and industry research. Since its inception in 1996 the CETA Education Foundation has given CETA members an opportunity to participate in encouraging and preparing the next generation to join our business and our industry.

It is the intention of the CETA Education Foundation to award scholarships to qualified applicants in a fair and impartial manner. The Education Foundation awards an equal number of scholarships for each CETA eligible membership class; Manufacturers, Supplier and Distributors, based on the ranking of the applicants supplied by an independent, accredited university. In the absence of a qualifying applicant in a membership class, the Board of Trustees will award a scholarship "at large" to the remaining applicant with the highest ranking, regardless of the membership class. In an effort to maximize scholarship distribution among the CETA membership, the Board of Trustees may, at their discretion, award the "at large" scholarship to the remaining highest ranking applicant in a manner that restricts awards to one per company per scholarship year.

Only the top scoring applicants, based on these rules, will be awarded a scholarship. In the case of a tie, the scholarship award will be shared equally among the tied applicants.

Our goal is to benefit future leaders in our industry and increase professionalism at every level. Remember your continuing contributions, along with others, support student scholarships, industry wide education and research. Thank you for helping achieve this goal!
