The Monitoring Association (TMA) opened the application period for the 2026 – 27 Louis T. Fiore Electronic Communications Scholarship. The scholarship is open to anyone studying an electronics curriculum, specifically electronic communications or software development related to electronic communications, regardless of financial need. Students seeking such a degree in electrical engineering or an associate degree in electronics at any nationally accredited educational institution may apply.

Established in 2022, the scholarship honors Fiore’s enduring contribution to the alarm industry and the Alarm Industry Communications Committee (AICC) and is intended to promote careers in electronic communications. The application deadline is March 31.

The winner will be selected by a panel of TMA leaders and members, including its namesake, Lou Fiore. The scholarship winner will be formally announced at TMA’s 2026 Annual Meeting in Grand Cayman in early November.
