Do you know a high achieving horticulture student?

The Certified Nursery Professional Student Scholarship Program closes for applications on November 12. After the successful launch of this program in 2008, this year’s program is expected to attract even more motivated Horticulture students from around Australia.

With the valuable support of sponsors Australian Horticulture magazine and Green-Life Careers, the 2009 Program aims to send one metropolitan and one regional horticulture student in their final year of study on an all expense paid trip to the Nursery & Garden Industry’s National Conference to be held in Darwin from April 19 to 22, 2010.

Student applications must be supported by their employer and training organisation and include their current academic results, along with 300 words outlining why they think they should be awarded the scholarship and what they would do with the opportunity.

The Certified Nursery Professional Program (CNP) supports the Student Scholarship Program which encourages horticulture students to learn the benefits of industry focused professional development and networking with industry professionals.

Further information and application forms for the CNP Student Scholarship Program are available from the Green-Life Careers website www.greenlifecareers.com.au, via email request to careers@ngia.com.au or by phone on (02) 9876 5200.
