Fundación Cepsa has launched the second edition of its ProFormación scholarship program aimed at supporting and financing Basic, Intermediate and Higher Vocational Training students. This initiative will provide 60 scholarships in the amount of 2,500 each, which will enable the selected students to cover education-related costs. In this way, Fundación Cepsa will make it easier for students to pay for tuition, school supplies, books, transportation, lunchroom and other school expenses in the areas where Cepsa has an important presence: Madrid, Canary Islands, Cadiz and Huelva.

The scholarship recipients will be students of Basic, Intermediate and Higher Vocational Training courses aged between 15 and 30 who are studying a vocational training course in energy and water, chemistry, safety and environment, mechanical manufacturing, IT and communications, installation and maintenance, electricity and electronics, administration and management or commerce and marketing.

“Through this program, which combines two of the main lines of action of our foundation, social and scientific-educational, we contribute to improving the competitiveness of the productive fabric through qualification and specialization in activities with high added value. We also prepare young talent for the professions of the future and promote their integration into the labor market, focusing on training in areas such as energy, chemistry, water and the environment, in order to promote the ecological transition”.

Cristina Ortiz - director of Fundación Cepsa

The application period for these scholarships will be open until July 22. Subsequently, beneficiaries will be selected by a specialized technical secretariat and an evaluation committee composed of representatives from Cepsa and its foundation. In the process, the candidates’ academic record and individual circumstances (disability, income, etc.) will be taken into account. Applications for this vocational training scholarship program can be submitted through the Fundación Cepsa website.

This new initiative joins the various projects promoted by Fundación Cepsa in the areas of training, social action and the environment, in line with the 2030 Agenda set out by the United Nations in its Sustainable Development Goals. Specifically, this project contributes toward SDGs 4, 8 and 10, focused on promoting quality education, decent work and reduced inequalities.
