Air Traffic Controller Jobs- thanks efamily member Sam Denard for sharing!

 

TAviation News Flight Safety FAA and Regs Two-Week ATC Application Window Opens Friday By Russ Niles - Published: April 17, 2024 Updated: April 18, 2024     The FAA has launched a barrage of social media posts aimed at gathering applicants for its next intake of air traffic controller trainees. The next application period begins Friday and lasts until May 8. The agency is short about 3,000 controllers and is under pressure to get those posts filled in light of a rash of highly publicized runway incursions in the last couple of years and has received extra funding to expedite training and broaden the pool of candidates. But even though there is both political and bureaucratic will to get those positions filled, the agency is not backing off on the rigorous training and competency requirements.   Applicants can’t be older than 30 and must be U.S. citizens, nationals or those who owe allegiance to the U.S. (IFR-rated pilots get a leg up), pass a medical and be willing to take drug tests, and the application does not sugarcoat what is expected of applicants. “Individuals who do not successfully complete training at the FAA Academy and all other necessary requirements will have their employment terminated,” the application says. Those who pass the numerous tests and on-the-job training get a starting salary of $43,727 plus benefits and location pay if applicable.   Russ Niles http://www.avweb.com Russ Niles is Editor-in-Chief of AVweb. He has been a pilot for 30 years and joined AVweb 22 years ago. He and his wife Marni live in southern British Columbia where they also operate a small winery.

Welcome to the latest edition of the Congressional Black  Caucus Foundation's InFocus quarterly newsletter! As we step into a new season, we are thrilled to share with you the impactful strides we've made in our mission to advance the global Black community. In this newsletter, you will find a wealth of information ranging from upcoming events that you can participate in, groundbreaking research findings, opportunities for internships and scholarships, as well as inspiring stories from the individuals whose lives have been touched by your generous support. Thank you for being an integral part of our journey, and we hope you enjoy reading about the progress we've achieved together. Journal of the Center for Policy Analysis & Research In February 2024, we released our new Journal of the Center for Policy Analysis & Research (JCPAR), “The Nexus: Defining the Moment.” This special edition of research highlights how the past five year’s have been transformative for the Black community, and this period, colored by a polarized Trump presidency, a divided congress, and the highest number of Black American elected officials since the Reconstruction Era, has brought us to a nexus. Featuring 11 articles of research, the JCPAR provides insight into the issues impacting Black communities and actionable solutions for policymakers.
