Once a person receives their high school diploma, very important questions begin to arise. Even if a student doesn't go directly from high school to postsecondary education or training, it's critical that he or she knows these options exist now and at some point in the future. Each institution should determine if the incoming student is serious about their education and training and suited to the chosen field, regardless of the student's age. For 2001, CTF will be exploring the possibility of expanding the Imagine America scholarship program from the current focus on graduating high school seniors to include adult learners. Career college graduates touch all of our lives every day.
Many professions depend upon a variety of career-trained men and women in order to do their jobs.
You can imagine what it would be like to be a doctor without support from nurses, medical assistants, and lab technicians. You can imagine what it would be like to be an airline pilot without a ground crew, mechanics, reservation agents, and scores of other service and support providers. Imagine America scholarships are aimed at sparking the imagination of tens of thousands of young Americans who know what they want to do, but don't necessarily know how to get the skills to do it.
