2024 SOAR Into STEM Fall Session Holds Aviation Career Exploration Fair

By Carmelo Turdo

Wings of Hope hosted a Career Exploration Fair on Saturday morning to close out the Fall SOAR Into STEM Session. Students from around the St. Louis area met directly with representatives from higher education institutions, aviation industry employers and youth development organizations who are working together to address the current aerospace industry workforce shortage. Here we include a look at some of the exhibitors interacting with the students and parents throughout the fair.

Those attending the career fair also participated in some fun activities, including flight simulators, riveting station sponsored by the St. Louis Community College Boeing Pre-Employment Training Program and a photo opportunity provided by Wings of Hope.

The Aero Experience thanks Wings of Hope and all of the participants and sponsors of SOAR Into STEM for providing another highly successful Fall Session. SOAR Into STEM will be held again next year at Wings of Hope in St. Louis and in Washington, MO.
