Mount washington career technical center is requesting $301,129 in year 1 of its proposed aviation academy

The project will expand and enhance mount washington career technical center s existing aerospace and aviation curriculum in alignment with the transportation, distribution, and logistics career cluster defined by the new hampshire department of education, the three sections of the FAA airman certification standards requirements (general, airframe, powerplant), manufacturers manuals, and our post-secondary partner nashua community college (NCC) aviation technology (at) program to foster a seamless transition from high school to post-secondary training leading to credentials in at. Additionally, the district will contract with an FAA a p AI instructor to develop program competencies, learning progressions, and outcomes that align with nccs at curriculum. The contracted instructor will be supported by the instructional design expertise of the mwvctc director, the executive board of directors of the esavac, and through the expertise of our industry partner, mosher aviation, a full-service general aviation maintenance flight school facility based in oxford, maine. The conway school district has committed to the alteration and renovation of learning space in our existing full-service automotive shop to accommodate the program. Central to the curriculum will be experiential learning through the refurbishment of esavacs donated 1971 grumman aircraft. Twenty high school juniors and seniors will be targeted for program recruitment annually. Tuition scholarships to the NCC s at program will be provided to two graduating seniors each year.
