Gene Haas Foundation Scholarship In 1999 Gene Haas founded the Gene Haas Foundation. Growing up with a strong social conscience instilled by his family, Haas initially formed the foundation to fund the needs of the local community. Haas is the owner Haas Automation, Inc., America’s leading builder of CNC machine tools, which he started in 1983. Haas Automation is a now a billion dollar company and this extraordinary growth has all come in an era when American’s were being told that the United States doesn’t manufacture anything anymore. Those perceptions and decisions made in our education system regarding vocational education have lead to dire statistics. GHF’s primary goal is to build skills in the machining industry by providing scholarships for CNC machine technology students and NIMS credentials. SCHOLARSHIPS can be used for tuition, books, student’s personal NIMS account, cost of individual NIMS credentials and small personal tools the tools students are required by program to purchase. Available only to full-time students in the NIMS Certified CNC Machine Operator Program. Gene Haas Foundation Scholarship Qualifications:
NOTE: This scholarship is only granted as funds are available and at a maximum tuition only rate for 480 Clock-Hours.
