Abstract:Building on 75 years of experience, the FAA’s
aviation and space education outreach
program is earning an A+ for encouraging elementary,
secondary, and even college students to study math,
science, technology, engineering, and a host of
other disciplines. Dedicated to educating today’s
youth about the aerospace career opportunities
available to them, the program is reaching out to
local communities across the nation, and sometimes
even beyond our U.S. borders. Through aviation
career education (ACE) academies, career day visits,
internships, aviation expos, science fairs, educator
workshops, guest lectures, and hands-on experience
at FAA facilities, millions of children and young
adults are learning about the myriad jobs available in
the aerospace industry and the educational experience
necessary to obtain and succeed at those jobs.
