Introduction to Aviation with Av-STEM
Your student’s education can now take flight with Introduction to Aviation. This online aviation course makes at-home aviation training possible. Upon completing this course, your child will understand the aerodynamics of flight, how to read aviation charts, how navigation works, and so much more. Many fun hands-on applications clarify what could otherwise be a complicated subject matter. To boost your child’s retention, many of these projects are repeated through various scenarios.
Over the next ten years, the FAA forecasts a shortage of pilots, mechanics, and other technical support personnel in the aviation industry. So Introduction to Aviation also includes about 30 aviation career pathway interviews. But even if your child is disinterested in pursuing the field of aviation, the knowledge he acquires through Introduction to Aviation can be transferred to a multitude of other careers.
The Introduction to Aviation Course provides between 110 and 120 hours of learning for an approximately 3/4 credit as an aeronautical science elective. Included is online course access for a single student for as long as he needs it. He will also receive all necessary supplies except for an inexpensive joystick*, which can be easily bought locally. See below for a complete list of included supplies.
*The joystick we recommend is the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro.
