In an effort to promote and encourage continuing education for balloon artists, Betallic is proud to sponsor a special, one-time educational scholarship for first-time attendees of FLOAT. One recipient will be selected based on his or her 1) vision for growth and 2) outline of how s/he plans to apply the education s/he receives at FLOAT. The scholarship will include complete registration for FLOAT 2017 (a $450 value). It does not include lodging, transportation, or other expenses. Any balloon professional who has never attended FLOAT is eligible. Email completed applications to .

Applications will be accepted through December 4, 2016.

The Betallic Educational Scholarship for FLOAT 2017 will be granted to an individual whose business significantly relies on the use of professional-quality balloons. Candidates must demonstrate a knowledge of balloons, and must have worked in the balloon industry long enough to benefit from the educational opportunities at FLOAT 2017. Selection will be based on the submitted application and potential follow-up interviews. Recipients will be determined by a scholarship board, which includes representatives from Betallic.
