November Employee of the Month Announced
The Employee of the Month for November comes highly recommended and commended from our campus to the North. One of the recommendation letters describes this person beginning as "OH MY" when they begin to talk about the things that he has accomplished at Hanger 33, stating also that the individual is confident, puts lots of careful planning and thought into his work and represents SWTECH supremely. The other recommendation states that the individual has put an extraordinary amount of hours above and beyond into the program, getting all of the Aviation Department formed into a cohesive, well functioning unit, all while teaching his own portion of the curriculum. Noted that this individual has spent evenings and weekends making a vision for the department a reality, all while incorporating the new FAA requirements into the learning process. The new changes are not only evident to staff but also to the students that have noted the improved level of education at the hanger. When you see JOE Schmitt, please give him a BIG shout out for his accomplishments at Hanger 33 and give him a high five for all of the work that he has done for the program.
