** FALCONER FOUNDATION EXPANDS SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM -- APPLY NOW **
The Glen Hay Falconer Foundation is excited to announce an amazing enhancement to its established
brewing scholarship program. In collaboration with the Seibel Institute of Technology, the Glen Hay
Falconer Foundation is offering two full-tuition brewing education scholarships in 2013. We are still
offering the Concise Course scholarship and are sending recipients back to Chicago for the residential
program. The big news is that we are now offering the International Diploma Course which takes place
over a 12-week period in Chicago and Munich. Both scholarship are full tuition grants and come with
generous travel/lodging stipends. Furthermore, we have expanded the geographic region for eligible
candidates.
The Falconer Foundation has granted over 20 scholarships since 2004. This year represents a
significant expansion in the scope of the program and is made possible due to the continued support and
enthusiasm of all of you. In particular, Hopunion's enormously successful Falconer’s Flight
®
initiative has
not only vastly spread the word about brewing education but also provided the necessary financial
support to underwrite this expansion of our brewing scholarship program.
One scholarship is for the World Brewing Academy Concise Course in Brewing Technology in Chicago in
October/November 2013. The Concise Course in Brewing Technology is a two-week intensive program
that covers every topic critical to successful brewery operations. The program is designed for brewers
pursuing a wider knowledge of professional brewing standards and techniques in order to advance their
brewing careers as well as individuals planning to enter the brewing industry. The Concise Course
scholarship includes a $1,000 stipend to help offset travel and lodging expenses.
The second scholarship is for the World Brewing Academy International Diploma Course running from
September to November 2013 at Siebel’s Chicago and Munich campuses. The International Diploma
course is a 12-week comprehensive course intended for brewers seeking an in-depth understanding of
the technical aspects and practical application of brewing science and technology. The International
Diploma Course scholarship includes a stipend of up to $5,000 to help offset travel and lodging expenses.
We have also greatly expanded the geographic region. Now, applicants must be from the states
Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Nevada, California, Alaska, and
Hawaii.
Note that the full application must be received no later than March 25, 2013. Complete details and
scholarship applications are available at
