The Automotive Management Institute (AMI) is accepting
applications for the annual $1,000 Tom B. Babcox Memorial Scholarship. AMI’s
resource development effort, EXCEL, in conjunction with Babcox Media,
established the scholarship, which is awarded to an Automotive Service
Association (ASA) Mechanical Division member who strives to be, or is presently
working, in a management capacity.
The scholarship will be applied toward the recipient’s
expenses to attend the 2011 Congress of Automotive Repair and Service (CARS) in
Orlando. Fla., Oct. 5-8. CARS is sponsored by ASA and offers an educational
lineup of AMI seminars, technical courses and industry sessions, a trade show
and the opportunity to network with other automotive service professionals.
To be eligible for the award, the following requirements
must be met:
• applicants must work in the mechanical repair industry;
• must demonstrate an interest in self-improvement through
management education;
• must own or work for a business that is an ASA member in
good standing;
• and, if the applicant is not the business owner, must be
recommended by the business owner.
AMI Trustees and their employees, and the Babcox
Scholarship Selection Committee and their employees, are not eligible to apply.
