Leading Fleets Deadline Extended to Monday
The Leading Fleets award deadline has been extended to end of day Monday, March 16. If you have not received an e-mail confirmation of your submission, please e-mail thi.dao@bobit.com.


There’s still time to submit an application for the Leading Fleets!
On Friday, due to a system error, submissions for the Leading Fleets closed for about 30 minutes at a crucial time for some applicants. Because fleets weren’t able to submit an application on time, we’ve extended the deadline to end of day Monday, March 16.
If you have not received an e-mail confirmation of your submission (which includes a copy of your entire application), your submission was most likely not received. Please e-mail Thi.Dao@bobit.com to check. Anyone who was unable to submit an application on Friday can do so on Monday until midnight.
