CGCC Adds Second Cohort For Aviation Maintenance Program

Columbia Gorge Community College says it has added a second cohort to its new Aviation Maintenance Technology program.  A second instructor, Tyson Aldrich will join lead instructor Bryan Despain to allow for the addition of 16 students per year.  In addition to starting a second cohort, CGCC is moving the program’s hands-on workspace to the Columbia Gorge Regional Airport in Dallesport.  A bill passed in the Oregon Legislature this year enabled instruction to take place in an airport hangar visible from the college’s campus in The Dalles but located in the state of Washington.  The program initially launched in the fall of 2022 following official recognition by the Federal Aviation Administration.  The new cohort is now open for registration for fall 2023.  Classes start September 25th.
