This year, E.B. Horsman & Son has committed to support students of British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) and reward their hard work and academic excellence.

We are happy to announce Shaun Tyers as the recipient of E.B. Horsman’s BCIT Entrance Award. Shaun is planning to use this financial award to continue his studies at BCIT in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Technology program.

“I am very honoured and grateful to be the 2017 recipient of the E.B. Horsman & Son Award” said Shaun Tyers. “I feel inspired and humbled to be sponsored by my dream industry. I have always worked hard to build a solid future for myself. I acknowledge that everyone has limits and have been focusing on my studies at BCIT primarily to ensure I make the most out of my opportunity. The E.B. Horsman award makes a direct contribution to my efforts and allows me to take the extra strides I need to really focus on studying opposed to spending time in supplementary employment. I am confident that with this award I will be capable of maintaining my work ethic and strong study habits. Thank you E.B. Horsman & Son for not only helping build a strong foundation for myself now but for also helping me become a better engineer for my future”.

By supporting BCIT students, we remain committed to our goal of helping our local communities thrive. We are always looking for talented, enthusiastic and committed people who can contribute to our longstanding traditions of service excellence, integrity and innovation.

E.B. Horsman & Son is proud to support Kwantlen Polytechnic Universities scholastic program by offering scholarships to students who achieved above average academic performance and exhibit leadership in their local community.
We are pleased to announce Sandy Chu as the recipient of the 2017 E.B. Horsman & Son Scholarship Award. Sandy has a 4.20 CGPA in the BBA Accounting/Coop program at KPU along with glowing references from her faculty for volunteer and community work.

“I am honoured to be the recipient of the 2017 E.B. Horsman Award” said Sandy Chu. “The scholarship will greatly assist me in completing my Accounting degree at KPU and pursing the CPA designation. Inspired by your generosity, I will continue to give back to my local community through service and leadership, ensuring that others have access to the opportunities that I have been given”.

This award celebrates the hard work and accomplishments of KPU students who are excelling in their education and helps to provide them with the support they need to succeed in their studies. Together with KPU we are transforming the lives of students as they move towards rewarding careers.
