Will housing be provided?
A housing bonus may be available to selected students from schools or colleges more than 65 miles from their assigned site. Boeing does not make housing arrangements on behalf of students.
What does the demand for workers with the skills that Core Plus Aerospace teaches look like?
There are 265,000 jobs in Washington, with an average annual compensation of $97,000 a year. An increasingly large portion of that workforce is becoming eligible for retirement. Washington manufacturers need talented workers and the door is open to a new generation of employees. Students who complete the Core Plus Aerospace curriculum will be ready to apply directly for entry-level advanced manufacturing jobs. Boeing alone has hired more than 1,000 Core Plus Aerospace graduates since 2015.
