Nov. 15, 2012: OESP Accepting Applications for Dave Nelsen Scholarship Program
EAST PETERSBURG, Pa. — The National Association of Oil & Energy Service Professionals (OESP) is accepting applications for the Dave Nelsen Scholarship Program. “The oil and energy industry is continually looking for qualified technicians to work in our industry,” said Judy Garber, OESP executive director. “OESP’s mission is education and we’re taking the lead by supporting our future technicians through annual scholarships.”
The Dave Nelsen Scholarship fund was established in 1999. Since then, over $191,000 in awards have been presented to students interested in pursuing careers in the energy-service industry. This marks the scholarship program’s 14th year and OESP, along with industry partners, plans to award a minimum of four $5,000 awards. The scholarship is funded by an annual golf tournament held during OESP’s Annual Convention.
