professional and career development for business aviation
schedulers and dispatchers. The Schedulers & Dispatchers
Training Scholarship Program, initiated in 2004, offers
opportunities for scholarship recipients to gain access to hands-on
teaching initiatives.
Through a separate Schedulers & Dispatchers Scholarship
Program, the Committee offers cash grants, which can be used for a
variety of professional development initiatives. Since 1997, more
than $380,000 has been awarded to schedulers and dispatchers
through this program.
