CFI-G Incentive Scholarships

Scholarship Award

Ten (10) $1,500 awards

Scholarship Description

The SSA is pleased to announce the continuation of the scholarship program for new CFI-Gs. This successful program was begun in 2019 with generous donations from John Weber and others. It is being continued with additional funding from donors, and also directly from the SSA. The goal is to grow the sport through stronger clubs with enthusiastic flight instruction and training programs. The SSA hopes the scholarships will provide an incentive to individuals who might otherwise not begin their CFI-G training, or are unlikely to complete their current CFI-G training for financial reasons. Interested SSA Chapters are encouraged to submit applicants who are likely to become active and effective instructors in their club.

Eligibility Requirements

1. Must be a member of SSA and an active member of the sponsoring SSA Chapter.
2. The CFI-G certificate/rating must be completed within 18 months of when the applicant is notified of the scholarship award.
