POINTS OF INTEREST Aerospace Everett Community College (EvCC) is the first community college in the nation to join five universities in a and Advanced Boeing-led collaboration to close the skills gap in aerospace engineering. Manufacturing EvCC is participating in AerosPACE (Aerospace Partners for the Advancement of Collaborative Engineering), a program to help the next generation of aerospace employees learn through real-life collaboration and by pairing EvCC students with Boeing mentors. EvCC also is continuing to train skilled employees through its Advanced Manufacturing Education Training Center (AMTEC). In 2014-15, EvCC received $1.4 million in state aerospace funding to train more precision machining and engineering students for high-demand jobs. EvCC exceeded its enrollment targets by 18 percent. Engineering EvCC’s engineering program has grown 23 percent in the past year. The increase in enrollment is due, in part, to Washington State University offering its electrical and mechanical engineering programs at EvCC’s campus in Everett.
