After hearing about EvCC’s Aviation Maintenance Technician program, Dremond “Dre” Stidwell moved all the way from Atlanta, GA to attend. “I chose Everett Community College because it's a great atmosphere, great learning environment for number one, and they had availabilities for the classes” says Dre. “I tried a couple of different programs in the south but they were backed up for a year, maybe two years, so I heard about the program out here, I ended up moving out here for the program and it opened up doors for me.” When he completes his A&P license (Airframe & Powerplant Test Prep Program) Dre plans to work in the commercial industry for a while. “These skills will help me reach my professional goals in terms that I'll always have work” he says. “The industry is steadily growing and also it will help me grow my business in the future.”
