Opportunities Knock: CCA Scholarships and Internships Open for 2025
Thinking about school or a foot in the door with California’s beef community? The California Cattlemen’s Association has two chances worth jumping on.First up: CCA’s 2025 scholarships. In 2024, the association awarded more than $51,000 to students studying agriculture, and the next round is open now. Any young, regular or feeder member is eligible to apply. Awards and quantities change year to year, and past recipients can apply again. Completed, typed applications are due Wednesday, Oct. 1, 2025, by 11:59 p.m. PST.
Also open: internships for CCA’s Annual Convention, Dec. 3–5. Interns help with registration, point folks where they need to go, keep the merchandise table humming and more. It is a hands-on way to meet industry leaders, sit in on select meetings and general sessions, and explore the tradeshow with complimentary registration. Applications are accepted through Friday, Oct. 10, 2025, at 11:59 p.m. PST. Young, regular and feeder members are all eligible, and past interns can reapply.
