Colorado’s Aims Community College announced Tuesday that it has been designated an Enhanced Air Traffic Collegiate Training Initiative institution by the Federal Aviation Administration following an on-site evaluation in January. Aims said it is the first community college approved to offer both terminal and enroute air traffic control training pathways under the program, which is administered by the FAA.
“This designation places Aims at the forefront of air traffic control education nationwide,” said Dr. Leah L. Bornstein, the college’s president and CEO.
The designation allows qualified graduates who pass the FAA Air Traffic Skills Assessment and meet medical and security requirements to bypass training at the FAA Air Traffic Control Academy and proceed to facility-specific training if hired.
