Hired a Student Intern? Apply for an Grant

January 10, 2018

Student Internship Grants are back! MCAA is making $1,000 grants available to members who hire a well-qualified college student for the summer or on a part-time or co-op basis. These grants are made possible thanks to funding from the association’s foundation, the Mechanical Contracting Education & Research Foundation (MCERF).

Student interns bring a lot of value to a company.  Their technical savvy, fresh outlook, energy and eagerness to learn add a useful perspective to projects and operations, and that may save your company time and reduce costs.  Their interest in our industry will grow and thrive as they learn on the job and become involved in the business of adding mechanical systems to new and retrofitted buildings. And, the added value of a Student Internship Grant makes hiring a student intern a win-win for everyone.

The grants are available now through the end of 2018.
