The North American Society for Trenchless Technology is reminding employees of North American municipalities, government agencies and utility owners that they have until Nov. 1 to apply for the 2026 Municipal & Public Utility Scholarship.
This program is specifically for individuals with limited or no training funds, and it aims to bring key decision-makers to the NASTT No-Dig Show, providing a valuable connection point for trenchless contractors.
The scholarship award includes a full conference and exhibition registration to the NASTT No-Dig Show (one-day registrations are also available) and hotel accommodations for three nights at the host hotel for selected applicants. Recipients gain full access to all exhibits and technical paper sessions.
Submissions received after Nov. 1 will be placed on a waitlist. Acceptance letters will be sent out in mid-December. A NASTT volunteer committee reviews all applications, and in recent years, more than 100 scholarships have been awarded annually. NASTT membership is not a requirement to apply.
For more information, applicants should review the NASTT’s No-Dig Show Municipal & Public Utility Scholarship Policy or contact NASTT Conference Program Specialist Amy Shipp, with questions.
