OLYMPIA, Wash.-Graduating seniors and community and technical college students across the state have been awarded 2024 Washington Award for Vocational Excellence scholarships, including several in the Tri-Cities area.
This year’s award pays up to $6,768 per year, for up to two years, according to the Workforce Training and Education Coordinating Board. Awards vary depending on tuition at the college attended by scholarship recipients.
A committee of business, labor and education leaders selected winners for the scholarships that honor Washington’s top career and technical education students.
“This scholarship helps students access good jobs and helps employers by adding more skilled workers to the workforce,” Workforce Board Co-Chair Larry Brown said. “WAVE creates new opportunities for Washington students studying a variety of professions and skilled trades.”
WAVE is funded by the Washington State Legislature and helps undergraduate students pay for tuition and other costs at Washington colleges, universities and private career schools, according to a Workforce Board press release on the scholarships.
