We recognize that pest management is often a family business, which is handed down from generation to generation, and we are proud of that.  So, in 2004, The North Carolina Pest Management Association (NCPMA) designed a scholarship program to help encourage and build the next generation of pest management professionals.

Each year, the NCPMA proudly awards scholarships worth up to $10,000 to students with preference given to those who demonstrate an interest in pursuing careers in the pest management industry.

Criteria
These scholarships are designed for students enrolling or currently enrolled in post-high-school programs at technical schools, colleges or universities.

Winners of these scholarships must be owners, employees or children or grandchildren of NCPMA member companies that have been in good standing with the organization for the past two years.

An applicant’s parents or grandparents must fulfill a two-year minimum requirement of working in the pest control industry. If this obligation is not fulfilled, the money is subject to full repayment.
