January 23, 2020

The Board of Certified Safety Professionals’ (BCSP) Foundation received many applications for scholarships and, after much consideration, recently provided 37 determined safety, health, and environmental (SH&E) students with $5,000 each to support their continued dedication to the development of their knowledge and the improvement of safety practice.

Every year, the BCSP Foundation offers scholarships to students of Qualified Academic Programs (QAP) holding accreditation from the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) or Aviation Accreditation Board International (AABI). A total of $185,000 was disbursed to recipients in the last year.

“These scholarship recipients are determined to make a positive impact on the lives of others through their passion for safety,” says Christine McConnell, Deputy Executive Director of the BCSP Foundation. “We appreciate the opportunity to act as a catalyst by providing them greater means to realize current and future achievements.”

The names and schools of the recent scholarship recipients are now listed on the BCSP Foundation’s website.
