St. Petersburg, FL, Feb. 12, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
US Federal Contractor Registration (USFCR) which typically helps businesses win money from the government is now grateful to help students win money to achieve their educational goals. The third-party government registration firm based out of St. Petersburg, Florida will award up to six students with the $1000 Eric Knellinger Presidential Scholarship. Applications are being accepted through May 1, 2018.
USFCR asks each student to submit a 1,500-word essay which demonstrate their grasp of the way the government buys products and services from contractors. Much of the government spending goes to private sector contractors because the government needs products and services to enact their plans and make their facilities function. Many contractors need help putting themselves in good position to sell to the government. The experts at USFCR help businesses make strong offers to the government with compliant registrations, efficient marketing and well-worded offers.
The $1000 Eric Knellinger Presidential Scholarship gives students a chance to benefit from a firm grasp of the knowledge it takes to win contracts as well. Scholarship money will be awarded to the applicants who submit the best original ideas that answer one of the following questions:
- How does the government work with government contractors?
- Which types of businesses are best positioned to receive and fulfill government contracts?
- What are some key factors business owners must keep in mind when deciding to become government contractors?
- Based on the last few years, what types of trends do you expect to see in available government contracts and opportunities?
Applicants should answer these questions with a specific career path in mind. This will help each essay to be unique.
Responses must be between 1,200 and 1,500 words and are due by no later than May 1, 2018. The scholarship is open to high school seniors and students enrolled at and attending either a two- or four-year college or university.
USFCR intends to award the scholarships by no later than May 31, 2018.
