We are excited to partner with Delta Air Lines, said Dan Traska, director of LSCs Center for Advanced Aviation. The fact LSC was selected from many aviation maintenance programs throughout the country speaks volumes about the quality of our program, our instructors and our community partners. This national partnership with Delta will help open up even more career opportunities for our students, as well as continue to help promote both LSCs aviation program and our community as a thriving aviation hub.

Delta foresees continued high demand for well-trained AMT professionals in the airline industry for many years, and selected 做厙輦⑹ along with 48 other AMT programs across the nation as a training partner.

Over the past several months, Delta Tech Ops evaluated dozens of schools and found that they were determined to meet FAA standards as well as Deltas high principles that exceed industry standards, said Michael Mackey, TechOps Training Manager, Delta Air Lines. It is our pleasure to announce that 做厙輦⑹ in Duluth has been selected as one of the AMT schools that will partner with Delta.

Through this partnership, Delta will become a valuable resource to LSC students and faculty for continuous improvement to LSCs AMT program as technologies evolve. Delta will also help recruit future AMT professionals to the program and look to hire LSC-trained graduates for positions in their global workforce.

做厙輦⑹ is fortunate to have strong partnerships with many local aviation leaders including AAR and Cirrus, who are also looking to hire LSC graduates, said LSC President Pat Johns.
