Aerospace Professional Development Center opens
New center will help match workers and employers in the aerospace industry 

COLUMBUS – State Senators Chris Widener (R- Springfield), Peggy Lehner (R- Kettering) and Bill Beagle (R- Tipp City) today joined Wright State University officials and representatives from Ohio’s aerospace industry at the opening of a new center designed to help match workers with job openings and educational development opportunities in the aerospace and defense industries. 

“Ohio’s aerospace industry has a large number of opportunities available, and this center will ensure that workers have the skills and training that are in demand by today’s employers,” Widener said. 

The Aerospace Professional Development Center, located at Wright State University, will enable aerospace and defense employers to collaborate with government, higher education institutions and STEM initiatives in order to ensure that workers have the skills and knowledge needed for these high-tech positions. The center will offer career coaching and professional development programs as well as a web portal through which workers can search for jobs and post resumes and employers can post job openings. 

“One of Ohio’s greatest assets is our workforce, and by enabling employers and workers to better connect with one another we are setting the stage to grow the aerospace industry – both here in the Miami Valley and throughout the state,” Beagle said. 

“Improving the educational resources available for students pursuing careers in the aerospace industry improves the odds they will stay here in Ohio, and also helps attract companies looking to take advantage of our highly-skilled workforce,” Lehner said.
