About Us

Aerospace Education Corporation is a not-for-profit organization created by members of the aviation community on Long Island, to promote aviation education to Long Island Students. Aviation related jobs represent a major source of employment on Long Island, but there is a shortage of educated workers. We would like to educate our students about the different career opportunities available on Long Island.

AEC held it's first career fair in September 2006, and the event was truly a success.  The Career Fairs will be held every other year - on the even numbered years.

If you are a school and are looking to find speakers for events hosted at your school, please contact Jennifer Minori.  She will send your request to a list of exhibitors.

William McShane and Jennifer Minori were recognized by the FAA Eastern Region with a Regional Administrator's Award for Extraordinary Service in 2006, for their help with organizing the first career fair.
