Long range planning does not deal with future decisions, but with the future of present decisions.

The Aerospace Resource Center [ARC] for the State of Florida
The ARC is Florida's first designated industry resource center -- a one-stop shop for addressing the aviation and space industry's current and future workforce training needs. The following goals help to define the services the ARC will provide:
Work with industry, education providers, and workforce development agencies to keep Florida's aerospace workforce capable and competitive.
Develop skill sets for entry-level and advanced jobs, as well as skills upgrades for the existing aerospace workforce.
Deliver, arrange, or assist in providing training with industry-level certifications.
Function as a focal point for institutions and employers by maintaining and disseminating workforce education resources.
Additional information about the ARC is available using the links across the top of the page. On-going activities and events can be found on the right-hand sidebar of each page.
