In partnership with Choose Aerospace, Aviation Supplies & Academics awarded three aviation mechanic student scholarships during the annual Aviation Technician Education Council (ATEC) Conference in Fort Worth, Texas, in March 2022.
ASA provided two student scholarships of $1,000 each to Eric Harrison of Spartan College of Aeronautics and Technology and Jessica Barrios of National Aviation Academy and one Aviation Mechanic Textbook and eBook set valued at $495 to Michael Graves of Tulsa Technology Center.
ASA supports Choose Aerospace in its efforts to unite companies, associations, labor unions, and educational institutions toward spurring interest in aerospace careers, and to identify and implement solutions for the aerospace workforce shortage. One of the biggest threats to continued industry growth is the availability of a diverse, qualified technical workforce, company officials noted.
