2009 SESVA Scholarship Winners

The NSW SESVA is proud to be a partner with the New South Wales Government and New South Wales State Emergency Service (SES) in the provision of scholarships for ten SES volunteers worth a total of $15,000.

Scholarship winners will share the skills and knowledge they gain through the courses they undertake and this will help build a smarter, more responsive Service better able to meet the needs of the community and to deal with future challenges such as advancements in technology and climate change. Volunteers will undertake study in such diverse areas as flood and emergency management, geographic information systems, expedition medicine, search and rescue and casualty simulation.
