Taking your career to the next level with a college degree just got easier. Building trades members are now eligible for hundreds of dollars in scholarship money when registering for classes at the National Labor College.

Seventeen "Building Trades President's Award" scholarships of $795 each are available to active members of building trades unions who enroll in any of the school's online degree programs—including construction management, business administration or emergency readiness and response management. The scholarship amount is equivalent to the cost of one three-credit course.

Sponsored by Union Plus, a total of $13,500 in new scholarships is now available. Deadline for spring term scholarship applications is December 12. Register today by visiting www.NLC.edu/scholarships.
