While the scholarship recipients
have no tie to LPA in their future
careers, there is also an industrywide benefit in uplifting those
already excited about the industry.
“The marine industry is facing
a labour shortage,” Fouchard
explains. “We want to help retain
those who already have a passion
for the sea.”
For Fouchard, the support LPA
provides externally reflects the
inclusive culture that stood out to
him when he was onboarded five
years ago.
“As a small organization, everyone is very accessible and aware
of barriers,” he says. “We’re all
experts in our fields and respected
as such.
“It’s a great culture of collaboration that I found interesting from
the beginning. Everyone can share
their opinions at all levels and
without judgment.”
