We need your support Governor's Directive and Legislative Directive Aligning employer needs with training Win-Win: Colleges, Students, Industry, State Fighting 147s: FAA and EASA More Efficient

Just the Beginning

Working to acquire clean comparable real time actual supply and demand charts

We are trying to get it, but having trouble getting it.

As far as we have gotten thus far the total number of FTE we are producing for aerospace and manufacturing. The problem is that we need industry at the table to give us real-time data.
