The Chemical Coaters Association International Finishing Education Foundation (CCAIFEF, Lakewood Ranch, Fla.) is currently accepting applications for its 2022 Matt Heuertz Scholarship Program. The scholarship program is designed to attract new talent to the industrial finishing and surface coating technologies industry. Over the years, the program has awarded more than $100,000 to students enrolled in programs that could lead to a career in the finishing industry.

“The number of applications received is increasing each year and the candidate pool is impressive,” says CCAIFEF Executive Director, Sheila LaMothe. “Many applicants are already involved in the finishing industry through co-ops and internships. We are excited about the potential the applicants bring to our industry.” 

Applications will be reviewed by the CCAI Finishing Education Foundation Board of Directors. Award amounts vary, are determined by the Board of Directors, and are sent directly to the recipient’s academic institution. Scholarship recipients also receive a free one-year CCAI student membership.
