After being dislocated from his job at Stellantis, Jonothan came to The Workforce Connection (TWC) upon learning that he qualified for the Trade Program (TAA). He explained that his prior experience in the automotive industry spurred in him a desire to explore the aviation industry.
This led Jonothan to enroll in aviation maintenance training at Rock Valley College, where he had a great experience training in this amazing program. He shared that there were many difficult challenges during the program, but he felt he always had the support he needed to overcome them.
Jonothan graduated with three Aviation Maintenance Certificates earned and went on to acquire a full-time job as an Airframe & Powerplant Mechanic with SkyWest Airlines. He loves his new job and is very grateful for all the assistance he received during his participation in the TAA Program. He states that he’ll keep learning what he can and hopes to advance to higher roles. All of us at TWC are very proud that we could help Jonothan reach his goals!
