Three students won the CCC Michael Salvatore Memorial Student Repair Technician Scholarship, which was renamed in 2007 to honor longtime CCC Information Services team member Michael Salvatore. Winners were announced by CCC and the I-CAR Education Foundation.
The scholarships go to students currently enrolled at a NATEF-certified school or an Industry Training Alliance school that is currently using the CCC Estimating System. The scholarship funds are available to the winning students to pay back tuition costs that accumulated during their education. Each student will receive a scholarship award of $5,000.
The 2010 winners include: Michael Allen Cornelison (UTI, Houston); Ryan Kelley (Fox Valley Technical College, Appleton, Wis.); and Nicholas David Roueche (Bridgerland Applied Technology College, Logan, Utah).
