If you are a company looking to hire an intern this year, be sure to check out these internship grants available through the Mechanical Contractors Association of America (MCAA).

The Mechanical Contracting Education & Research Foundation (MCERF) is offering grants to MCAA members who hire college students majoring in a discipline related to mechanical contracting. The grants are for $1,000 and MCAA members are eligible to apply for up to two grants during 2017.

MCERF funds the grants to encourage MCAA members to draw student interns into the industry to help the student gain valuable knowledge from the skills and experience of the contractor and positively affect his/her future career plans. In addition, the contractor gains from the student’s new perspective and technology expertise. The grant helps cover the intern’s salary.

Be sure to apply for a grant this year. Learn more by visiting MCERF.
