2026 Aviation Teachers Workshop: Educating the Educators
This past September, the Montana Department of Transportation (MDT), in partnership with the Montana Learning Center (MLC), hosted the Aviation Teachers Workshop in Helena. Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) teachers from across Montana came to the workshop to learn new aviation experiments based on lift, thrust, drag and weight to take home to their students. Teachers were given introductory flights to kick off the event and were given the opportunity to take a turn in the pilots seat and try their hand at flying. After their flights, tours of Helena College’s airport campus, Boeing, the Army National Guard facility, and the Air Traffic Control tower were given providing them with insight into what educational and career paths are possible for their students in the aviation world.
