A Message From Tony
 
Hello, AIAM Business Community,
 
Many will say we should never wish time away but for me personally, 2020 will not be over soon enough. It has without a doubt been a year none of us will ever forget. Even though something magical will not occur on January 1st I truly have confidence that hope is on the horizon.

Talent Project with Grand Valley State University
 
 
AIAM is excited to be working with a team of senior computer science students at Grand Valley State University (GVSU) to bring technology and talent together for our members. The capstone project, which began in August of 2020, will provide an innovative way to view open positions with AIAM member companies on a job board to be hosted on the AIAM website starting in January. Anyone seeking a position in Michigan’s aerospace industry will have a single place to search for their next career opportunity. The GVSU team did a phenomenal job building custom code for the AIAM website that finds and lists open positions that our member companies have published online. Above is a sneak preview of what the page will look like once it is ready to launch on the AIAM website.
 
 
Pure Michigan Business Connect Launches Certification Grant Program
