Foundation Programs
Internship Program
The ISTAT Foundation Internship Program assists in the development of aviation-focused college students desiring to become productive members in the aircraft trading industry and generates qualified employment candidates for ISTAT member companies.
The ISTAT Foundation Internship Committee acts as an intermediary between ISTAT member companies and students seeking aviation internships. Through the use of our web portal, qualified students and employers are able to match the right skills, background and interests with corporate internships.
Scholarship Program
The ISTAT Foundation is actively engaged in helping young people develop careers in aviation by offering scholarships typically up to $10,000 to college-level students who are academically qualified and in need of financial support. The program is administered by the Scholarship Committee of the ISTAT Foundation Board of Trustees in conjunction with accredited universities who recommend qualified students.
