Since its inception, BIAW has awarded over $500,000 in scholarships to students who have demonstrated a passion and commitment to developing a career in the home building or industry-related professions. In addition to the individual scholarships, new this year, BIAW awarded four grants to organizations offering programs in construction-related fields of study, residential construction career training, continuing education, and apprenticeship and skills assessment services. BIAW is proud to provide scholarships to students pursuing a career in the home building industry.
