By Cory Wayland
The ECAB is excited to announce the launch of the highly anticipated Aspiring Leaders Scholarship, set to take place on Tuesday, May 27th, 2025, at 10 a.m. This significant event will be held at the University of the West Indies Five Islands Campus Cafeteria.
The Aspiring Leaders Scholarship represents a remarkable opportunity for students, as it will fully fund three years of tuition for a deserving recipient enrolled in the School of Business and Management or the School of Science Computing and Artificial Intelligence at the university. In addition to tuition, the scholarship also covers ancillary expenses such as guild fees, student ID fees, and textbook costs for the first year.
The launch event promises to be informative and inspiring, featuring remarks from notable figures including ECAB’s Chief Executive Officer, Michael Spencer, UWI Five Islands Campus Principal, Professor Justin Robinson, and the Honourable Minister of Education, Sports, and Creative Industries, Daryll Matthew.
This initiative highlights ECAB’s commitment to supporting education and nurturing the next generation of leaders in the region. Coverage of the event by local media would be greatly appreciated as it underscores the significance of this scholarship in empowering students to achieve their academic goals.
