Columbia Gorge Community College is going through the process of getting its aviation maintenance program approved by the Federal Aviation Administration. CGCC Dean of Career and Technical Education Mary Kramer says they are working with the FAA to ensure the curriculum is to the agency’s liking and that all required processes and procedures are in place. Kramer says the FAA reviewed the initial documents CGCC submitted and returned them this week. The college will make edits the FAA has requested, resubmit, and then the agency will visit the school to do a teaching observation and a complete inspection of facilities. Kramer adds the goal is to have the program certified in mid-March and starting it this summer.
