Explore the High-tech World of Rotocraft Production

Graduates from this program will be trained for the highly-skilled, advanced technical demands in alliance with today’s leading provider of military and commercial aircraft, the Boeing Company.

Students accepted into the program study the materials and processes used in manufacturing helicopters. These industry-based courses are held at DCCC’s new Advanced Technology Center.

The Boeing Company will provide great exposure to industry professionals. Students enter into an RF Helicopter competition, learn fundamentals of aerodynamics and apply that knowledge to the products they fabricate. The program will reinforce academic skills required for Boeing’s math competency examination.

Professionals will assist students meeting hiring qualifications in their career development. Students who are hired by Boeing can continue their college education through Boeing’s Learning Together program. The corporation provides 100% tuition reimbursement as one of its employee benefits.
