Glenn Spartz Scholarship

The Glenn Spartz Scholarship is offered by Boating BC Association to students enrolled in the Marine Mechanical Technician Apprenticeship (MMT) program at BCIT or the Motorcycle + Marine Technician Foundation Program at BCIT and Vancouver Island University. The scholarship supports the ongoing need for qualified mechanical technicians in the recreational marine industry in British Columbia. Funds for the scholarship are generated by Boating BC and contributing partners including Mercury Marine, Yamaha Canada and Suzuki Marine. The scholarship is named in honour of a former Boating BC board member who was instrumental in establishing the MMT program. Applications are reviewed by Boating BC's Marine Careers Committee, and scholarships are awarded based on each candidate's individual need at the sole discretion of the Committee. Successful applicants receive funds directly upon approval and following proof of enrollment in the qualifying MMT or MMTF programs.
