Individuals Will Be Recognized At The Leadership Conference
Later This Month
The NBAA today announced that two
individuals have been selected by the Association's Corporate
Aviation Management Committee as recipients of the 2010 Corporate
Aviation Management Scholarship.
Each scholarship includes a value equivalent to $1,600 to cover
expenses associated with attendance at NBAA's 2010 Leadership
Conference, taking place on February 24 and 25, 2010 in San Diego.
Attendance at this Conference promotes the professional development
and leadership skills of individuals seeking careers in flight
department management.
The Corporate Aviation Management Scholarship, now in its sixth
year, is sponsored by NBAA and The VanAllen Group. Representatives
from each of these entities will be present at the NBAA Leadership
Conference to recognize this year's recipients.
