As highlighted in the San Antonio Report, more high school students across the region are seeking workforce training and industry-based certifications as a direct path to career success. At The Dee Howard Foundation, we are proud to be part of that momentum by expanding access to aerospace and aviation pathways through hands-on programming and strategic partnerships: 🚁 Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Curriculum - We are equipping students with real-world skills through our drone education program, which now includes pathways to earning the FAA Part 107 certification. This industry-based certification opens doors to high-wage, high-demand careers and new industry exposure for students. 👩‍🏫 Educator Professional Development - We are investing in the people who shape student success. Our teacher externships, future Aerospace Educator Community of Practice, and industry mentorships ensure educators are informed and empowered to guide students toward meaningful opportunities. 🔧 Student Work-Based Learning - From job shadows and internships to real-world competitions, we are providing students with meaningful exposure to the aerospace industry. These experiences help build confidence, skills, and a clear path to career readiness. Together, we are creating new options for students and shaping a future where every learner sees a pathway to success. https://sanantonioreport.org/get-ready-san-antonio-more-high-school-students-are-seeking-workforce-training-and-certifications/ #AerospaceEducation #CareerPathways #Part107 #TeacherExternships #WorkforceDevelopment #DroneEducation #STEMCareers #FutureReady #TakeFlight (fb)
