However, if you apply for the main AWS Scholarships, you will also be automatically entered for the KC Local scholarship and no need to reapply. So all the better to apply and meet the March 1 deadline! Go to aws.org/scholarships and apply. Don’t procrastinate, and don’t miss the deadline! Also, AWS is planning two Leadership Symposiums in 2022. The first event will take place July 24-27, 2022, and the second August 7-10, 2022. Both events will be held in Doral, FL. This will be a great opportunity and learning experience on becoming a leader in AWS and the world of welding. AWS will be selecting up to five students to attend each event. The application for students to apply online for consideration is available at https://www.aws.org/events/detail/leadership-symposium under the “Student Attendee Application” heading.
