CMiC Donates $400,000 in Scholarships for the ACE Mentor Program of AmericaThe CMiC-Allen Berg Memorial Scholarship grant will support 23 students as they pursue post-secondary programs in architecture, engineering and construction TORONTO, May 22, 2020 /CNW/ - CMiC — the most complete ERP and field operations software platform for construction management — has distributed a total of $400,000 in scholarships to 23 high school students across 23 states. In its 2nd year, the CMiC-Allen Berg Memorial Scholarships were presented in partnership with the ACE Mentor Program of America. "The scholarships are a real 'career booster' for some of the most talented and promising of our thousands of students," said ACE's president Diana Eidenshink. "Many of them come from families with limited means. Some scholarship winners are the first in their family to attend college. We expect them to be industry standouts during their careers." The grant was established back in 2018 in memory of late CMiC founder, Allen S. Berg. The spirit of the grant is to preserve and extend Mr. Berg's rich legacy. "Allen was a lifelong learner, devoted to educational and community causes," says Judith Berg, Chairwoman of the CMiC Boad of Directors. "This scholarship in his memory will carry on his legacy as an advocate for equal opportunities to drive positive change in the world." Scholarship recipients were selected on the basis of merit and financial need. This fall, they will enroll in accredited college programs in architecture, construction, interior design and engineering. Winners were notified this year via a Zoom video conference announcement. "We congratulate the exceptional students who were awarded this year's scholarships," says Jeff Weiss, Chief Revenue Officer at CMiC. "We look forward to following their journeys and successes as they grow into professionals in the AEC industry." The scholarships are a part of CMiC's broader commitment to corporate social responsibility. Another initiative, the 'Ready, Set, Build!' program, aims to connect the company's core competencies in construction with a social need in the community through a partnership with Building Up, Toronto's leading social contractor.
