When it comes to achieving the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) safety mission, diversity is critical. Having people with varied backgrounds and different perspectives makes us more innovative, stronger, and safer as an agency.
Starting today, the FAA is launching an awareness campaign to increase and diversify the number of applications to become air traffic controllers that we receive from women, minorities, and individuals from disadvantaged communities.
That is why I’m emailing you. We need your help to get the word out to as many people as possible so they can be prepared to submit their application during this year’s window that runs from July 30 – Aug. 2. You can get more information about the application process, requirements and qualifications to become an air traffic controller at www.faa.gov/levelup.
We developed a toolkit to assist you in sharing this opportunity with your networks, members, and other outreach groups. Be sure to follow the FAA on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Instagram and share our posts that raise awareness about this great opportunity.
You know what it takes to keep the National Air System the safest and most efficient in the world. And you know we can’t do it without you. So help us find diverse, qualified, and motivated individuals from across the country to fill our applicant pools.
Thanks so much for your help,
