Dr. Anthony Clarke speaks with Spectrum News about GTCC Aviation Center and working with JetZero.

JetZero’s new manufacturing campus in Greensboro is expected to create major workforce opportunities in Guilford County, and Guilford Technical Community College is preparing students to meet that demand. GTCC is developing a new 70,000-square-foot aviation facility that will expand student capacity by 40% and include a larger composites technology lab aligned with JetZero’s aircraft manufacturing needs.
