We want to send a huge thank you to the 580 members and volunteers who completed our first of what will be an annual AE Curriculum Survey! With a nearly even split between AEOs and AEMs represented in the feedback, we have a firm understanding of the needs across our entire member base.
High Quality, Clear Path Forward
The data confirms the strength of our aerospace education content: 80% of respondents are "Likely or Very Likely" to recommend our materials, and 77% rated the overall quality as "Very Good or Excellent."
However, our biggest challenge is delivery. We learned that the largest group of non-users stopped because they had trouble finding what they needed on our current website and multiple platforms.
As one member noted: "I can find other free resources online much quicker than navigating the LMS for CAP."
Strategic Fix: Absorb Migration
To fix this critical "Access Gap," we are prioritizing a full migration of all resources to the Absorb LMS in the new year! This consolidation will immediately enable you to use lesson tags and filtering tools to find the resources you need easily and efficiently.
Modernization is Underway
We also heard your requests for greater efficiency and content rigor:
-
More Digital Tools (presentations, videos) to reduce prep time
-
Better alignment with traditional class block schedules
-
More advanced or high school-based lessons
The great news is that we're already implementing these changes! Our revised lessons in Absorb are clearly labeled with instructional time, national standards, and handouts. We've also started adding dynamic, interactive presentations to our most popular lessons.
We'll keep adding these features to ensure our program is both high-quality and easy to teach, supporting every classroom and squadron.
Thank you for helping us build the future of Aerospace Education.
