2024 NATCA Scholarship Application Open Until March 1

The NATCA scholarship fund is established for the spouses, children, stepchildren, and legally adopted children of active, retired, and deceased NATCA members with continuous membership in good standing of at least two years. These scholarships are for full-time attendance at accredited colleges and universities within the United States and its territories for an undergraduate degree program. The deadline to apply is March 1. The application for the scholarship can be found here: https://www.natca.org/community/scholarship-application/.

The application process includes an essay submission. This year’s prompt asks candidates to examine the effect of artificial intelligence on workers and labor unions:

The evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly changing the way we live. Unions across a broad spectrum of occupations are preparing to address the effects of an increased utilization of AI on their membership. As a student who will soon be entering this changing workplace, discuss how you see AI affecting the careers in which you are interested and what you believe unions should do to offer job protections as new AI processes continue to be implemented.
