Each year, Tri-County EMC awards $10,000 to local students from the Tri-County EMC service area. This year, we are adding an additional $3,000 Lineman Scholarship. 

To qualify, applicants must have received a high school diploma in Jones, Putnam or Baldwin Counties or have received a GED and currently reside in Jones, Putnam or Baldwin Counties in Georgia.

“Like many trades, being a lineman is very much a tradition and a way of life,” said Kim Broun, Manager of Energy Services. “This scholarship is our way to raise awareness for lineman careers and encourage individuals looking for a stable, hands-on job to consider becoming an electric lineman.”

This scholarship will cover the cost of most Lineman School programs offered in the Technical College System of Georgia. To learn more, visit www.tri-countyemc.com/linemanscholarship.cms. Applications are due April 15.
