Military Family Member Scholarships
CanScribe Career College offers 2 - $1500 scholarships for Military Family Members
CanScribe Career College signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Canadian Forces Personnel and Family Support Services to offer 2 annual - $1500 scholarships for its renowned Online Medical Transcription Program. This initiative is an important part of CanScribe Career College’s mission statement to help people achieve their goals and give back to the community. Helping Canadian Military Families meets these objectives. In addition to the scholarships, CanScribe is offering a free Dictation Upgrade (a $250 value) to all other Military Family Members who enroll in the Medical Transcription Program.
“We are so excited to offer these scholarships and free upgrades to our Military Families”, states Colleen Gaudet, President & CEO of CanScribe Career College. “We believe our Medical Transcription program is a perfect fit as both the online training and employment opportunities are portable, and our graduates have the opportunity to work from home for a variety of different employers.”
Interested candidates must submit a 1 – 2 page essay, with their enrolment application, describing their personal motivation for applying for the scholarship, including background information, how this career choice will impact their life, their plan of action to complete the course and future aspirations. Two scholarships will be awarded each year. All other Military Family Members will receive the free upgrade upon enrolment and confirmation of Military Family status.
"On behalf of the Canadian Forces Military Families I would like to thank CanScribe Career College for their generous scholarship offer," said Brigadier-General Fred Bigelow, Director General Personnel and Family Support Services. "This online distance learning opportunity will benefit our military family members, where ever they are located and help overcome some of the barriers to employment that some of our families face as they transit from one location to another during their careers."
