Middy’s Scholarship Program

The Scholarship Program was established to support electricians with the training and skills they need to have a competitive edge in our ever changing Australian Electrical Industry. The Middy's Scholarship Program awards $100,000 worth of electrical industry training across 7 x $10,000 Gold and 6 x $5,000 Silver Scholarships.

Now in its 15th year, we are enormously proud that our Scholarship Program has delivered well over $1M worth of Scholarships since 2009. If you want to be one of this year’s 13 recipients all you need to do is complete the online application and tell us why you think you or one of your employees deserves a Middy’s Scholarship. Judging of applicants will be by an independent panel comprising of industry professionals from ESV, NECA and Connections Magazine.

The winners will be personally notified by a member of Middy’s management and will be invited to the Scholarship Awards Presentation in November 2023. Mingle alongside industry leaders, Middy’s directors and hear from keynote speakers at a night that celebrates industry excellence. Interstate winners and partners are flown into Melbourne with accommodation included to attend.
