AWARDED EACH YEAR AT THE TAA ANNUAL CONVENTION
Consider applying for a TAA Scholarship!
The purpose of the TAA Scholastic Scholarship is to advance education by providing a scholarship to be awarded to a deserving candidate who is a student with a parent(s) or grandparent(s) holding a current TAA membership. The candidate must be enrolled in an institution of advanced education of higher learning, including junior college, college, or vocational educational schools. All applications will be reviewed by the scholarship committee chairman to verify eligibility. The winner will be selected by a committee of four TAA full-member auctioneers. The winner will be required to forward proof of enrollment.
The Jim Sample Endowment Scholarship honors the memory of those who impacted the auction industry and the Texas Auctioneer Association organization. The scholarship will provide the winner full tuition to America's Auctioneer Academy.
Sponsored by Lemons Auctioneers & Online Pros., the Rene Bates TCAP Scholarship honors the memory of Mr. Rene Bates who supported continuing education and mentoring of auctioneers in Texas. Any TAA member can apply for this scholarship which will provide tuition to all three courses of the Texas Certified Auctioneer Program.
