ENGLISH HARBOUR, Antigua – The Antigua and Barbuda Yachting and Marine Association (ABYMA) and IYRS School of Technology & Trades have launched The Antigua Marine Scholarship Fund.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

In order to qualify for the program, candidates will need to apply to the Antigua Selection Committee presently consisting of members of ABYMA who will review and determine the candidates long-term interest and commitment to the Antigua & Barbuda marine services industry. In addition, the candidates will be required to meet all of the IYRS Admission criteria led by Ms. Wehr, IYRS Director of Admissions.<\/p>\n

The first recipient is 21-year-old Ishmael Auguste who will study Marine Systems. Auguste is an ex-Irene B Secondary School Student from Liberta Village and a current member of the refit team at Woodstock Boat Builders. He previously gained experience in electrics and is seeking to expand his knowledge to include marine electrical systems.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\u201cIt is my dream to be an engineer and work on motor or sailing superyachts,\u201d said Auguste. \u201cI\u2019ve gotten straight to work at IYRS and I look forward to sharing my knowledge when I\u2019m back in Antigua.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\u201cRobert Osborn Jr., President of the Salty Dawg Association and I came up with the idea to support local Antiguan marine service workers,\u201d said Robert Farley, a member of The New York Yacht Club (NYYC) and Cruising Club of America (CCA). \u201cThe goal is to help Antiguan locals gain industry-recognized certifications to enhance the future of Antigua’s marine industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

Farley and Osborn approached IYRS with the concept and gained full support to proceed in collaboration with the ABYMA. IYRS is the premier marine trades and modern manufacturing school in the United States.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\u201cIt is essential that the quality of marine services remain robust in Antigua so that the island can continue to be a premier destination for cruisers and superyachts into the future,\u201d said Osborn, who is responsible for encouraging approximately 80 cruising boats to visit Antigua every fall as part of the Annual Salty Dawg Caribbean Rally. \u201cThe partnership between ABYMA and IYRS will build on the excellent services available on the island while preparing the marine industry\u2019s next generation.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMany principles are aging out of local marine service businesses,\u201d said President of the ABYMA Franklyn Braithwaite. \u201cWith recent sad and sudden deaths, this has further put the spotlight on the need to accelerate the development of more skills on island.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\u201cAs the premier technology and trade school, with a focus on the marine trades, IYRS works across the industry to create partnerships that are paramount to a healthy workforce ecosystem,\u201d said IYRS President Kern Maass. \u201cIYRS currently has over 600 hiring partners. Placing our students with careers, not just entry-level jobs, is a primary reason students seek out IYRS. Likewise, our relationships with industry partners ensures that our programs deliver what partners need to provide successful products and services. ABYMA and Antigua are ideal partners in building upon this crucial ecosystem, advancing excellence across the marine trades.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The Scholarship Fund\u2019s goal is to send at least two students each year and create an endowment that ensures the success of the program into the future.<\/p>\n

Those interested in contributing to the Antigua Marine Scholarship Fund can visit https:\/\/www.iyrs.edu\/give\/make-a-gift and designate \u201cAntigua Scholarship\u201d. IYRS is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) so donations may be tax deductible. Contributions of any size will support current and future students\u2019 development in the industry and ensure program continuity.<\/p>\n
