FINDING YOUR PATH AS AN EXPLORER

With Airway Science for Kids ( ASK )

———————————————————————— By JD Wyneken
What would you say if I told you that you are an explorer ? Would you agree with me ? Have you ever seen yourself that way ? If not , then now is the time to start , because you indeed are one , no matter how old or young you are ! Anyone with curiosity , who tries new things and learns new things , is an explorer . And someone who is interested in subjects like aviation , spaceflight , robotics , and creating new technologies – just like you , because you are here reading this , aren ’ t you ? – is the kind of explorer who can do great things in their career and in this world .
What helps explorers , though , is a good map . It helps you figure out where things are , the pathways to get there , and identifies the obstacles to avoid or get past . But if you are looking to explore all the career options that are out there for you in aerospace , you might not know where to find that kind of map or how to use it once you do .
The good news , though , is that Airway Science for Kids ( ASK ), out of Portland , Oregon , has the map you need AND can show you how to use it ! That map is their new Student Success Coaching Program , the latest addition to their series of offerings helping students find their interests and career planning in aerospace careers . Whether you are looking to become a pilot , an aircraft mechanic , an engineer , or an astronaut ( or maybe all of the above ?), ASK has a map for you to follow – in fact , they help you develop your own map that is unique to you .
