Sonic Tools announced the start of its Sonic Impact Scholarship Program, which will award 10 technicians a complete toolset for their specific industry, be it automotive, aviation, or manufacturing. Five of the scholarships will be awarded in June, and the remaining five will be awarded in November.
The program is aimed at helping clear the way to allow future technicians to thrive in a difficult industry, especially with the current technician shortage, by giving them the literal tools of their trade. Applicants are expected to exemplify the company's values of passion, accountability, collaboration, and experience (PACE) and must provide the following: proof of enrollment in an automotive, aviation, or manufacturing trade school; a letter of recommendation from an instructor; a 500-word essay on how the student represents PACE values and explains how they plan to make an impact; and a 60-90 second video on how Sonic will impact their career.
What people are saying
Colby McConnell, CEO of Sonic USA, said, “At Sonic, we believe that a successful career is built on a solid foundation of Passion, Accountability, Collaboration, and Experience, or PACE values, for short. With the launch of our Sonic Impact Scholarship, we will support the blossoming technicians who live by these values and invest in their futures by allowing these ten students to focus on their education and career rather than the debt of buying a new toolset.
