Congratulations to NETA’s 2023 Michael Wollman Memorial Scholarship Recipients!
The five student recipients embody what NETA stands for, and we are honored to support them as they pursue their professional goals. Their passion for fitness, desire to help others lead healthier lives, and their unique perspective is what the future of our industry is all about.
We are honored to present scholarship recipient Jayla Knox.
Jayla is a full-time student at Central Michigan University, majoring in Exercise Science with a focus on Health and Fitness. She describes receiving the Michael Wollman Memorial Scholarship as the “cherry on top” of her undergraduate journey as an Exercise Science major. She is very passionate about her career, her future, and helping others. She believes that it is important that under-represented groups in fitness like women, people of color, and those with disabilities have educational leaders within the fitness industry that they can relate to.
Receiving the Michael Wollman Memorial Scholarship will not only give Jayla the opportunity to get certified and begin working and professionally training others, but it has also lifted the financial burden that many individuals face while starting their own journey in this competitive industry. Jayla is excited to finish her certification and be one step closer to achieving her dream career in the fitness industry!
