Grundy Area Vocational Center Launches Aviation Program for Students
The Grundy Area Vocational Center (GAVC) has announced a new aviation program aimed at high school students, in collaboration with the City of Morris, Morris Municipal Airport, and D14 Aviation. This initiative, unveiled on March 15, 2024, will provide students with comprehensive training in various aspects of aviation, including aeronautics, aviation maintenance, and flight science.
The program is designed to give students a competitive edge in the workforce by offering them exposure to the aerospace industry. Lance Copes, the Director of GAVC, emphasized the importance of this partnership, noting, “Our goal has always been to give students a competitive edge in today’s workforce. This partnership allows us to expand into a high-demand field and offer students direct exposure to aviation careers, right here in our community.”
Through this collaboration, GAVC students will gain practical experience in a functioning aviation environment. The curriculum will include hands-on training and opportunities to engage with industry professionals. This real-world learning experience will enhance their understanding of airport operations and aviation careers, potentially leading to certifications and further educational pathways after high school.
In support of this initiative, Chris Brown, Mayor of Morris, stated, “We’re proud to support this initiative that not only invests in the future of our students but also aligns with the continued growth and development of Morris Municipal Airport and the regional economy.”
The program is set to be a significant addition to GAVC’s offerings, highlighting the institution’s commitment to enhancing career opportunities for its students. Further details regarding program enrollment, curriculum specifics, and informational sessions will be released in the coming months.
