2025 R. Flint Student Leadership Development Scholarship: Leverage

Only SkillsUSA state association directors may submit applications for scholarship candidates. Each state association, including both high school and college/postsecondary associations in applicable states, may submit an application for each state officer on their team. Once nomination applications are received, a panel of SkillsUSA staff and leadership trainers will evaluate the applications and select recipients.

The purpose of this scholarship is to provide support for top students who have insufficient chapter, school or community resources to participate in the national-level SkillsUSA Leverage leadership training at the annual National Leadership and Skills Conference (NLSC).

If one or more of your members are selected to receive a $1,300 scholarship award, scholarship funds will be remitted from SkillsUSA directly to your state association. It is then the responsibility of the state association to distribute the funds to the student-recipient(s), or their chapter(s) according to your state association's policies.
