Educator Survey

Congress authorized the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to establish the Youth Access to American Jobs in Aviation Task Force (YIATF). The objective of YIATF is to provide recommendations to FAA that will encourage students to pursue in-demand careers in aviation. The YIATF is examining trends that directly or indirectly encourage or discourage young people from pursuing aviation careers. To assist the Task Force in understanding the role of the educator and what recommendations would best support the goal, we seek your input. Your responses are greatly appreciated! Your responses will be anonymous. A summary of the de-identified, aggregated results will be shared with the YIATF.

Estimated time to complete: 5-7 minutes.

For questions, contact, Yvette Rose, President, Aero Club Foundation of Washington, yrose@cargoair.org.
