AIRPORT BOOT CAMP is the FIRST step to launching your AVIATION LIFE, whether on the ground or in the air. It is THE solid foundation to build the rest of your career on. Whether you want to become a pilot, mechanic, flight attendant, air traffic controller, airport ramp worker, airline refueler, hot air balloon chaser, air rescue crew member, flight nurse, military aviation trainee, aircraft dispatcher, air cargo handler, flight planner, customer service rep, gate agent, TSA agent, avionics tech, aircraft detailer, flight caterer, airport firefighter, policeman, FAA, Young Eagle, Civil Air Patrol cadet, or virtually ANY other aviation position...AIRPORT BOOT CAMP is for YOU! AIRPORT BOOT CAMP will help you become familiar with aviation before you show up as the NEWB. The newbie. The new guy. My course helps reduce some of the 'newb pain'. My book, the AVIATION NEWB SURVIVAL GUIDE (included with this course), complements it and will help you grow in your knowledge and understanding as you pursue your aviation goals and dreams. Having a general familiarity of things before you start can ease the "newb" stigma or anxiety that we all feel when entering a new world or workplace. A little knowledge goes a LONG way! Aviation is a unique, special world. It has a cool language. I will teach it to you. Aviation keeps time differently. I will teach it to you. Aviation uses special equipment, can be dangerous, is challenging, irritating, rewarding and yes, even fun. This world is made up of a unique group of people. An aviation tribe. MY tribe. YOUR tribe. I will help you transition in. AIRPORT BOOT CAMP is built around the following 6 CORE areas:  1. THE AIRPORT ENVIRONMENT 2. COMMUNICATIONS 3. AVIATION SAFETY 4. DRIVING AIRPORT VEHICLES/EQUIPMENT 5. AIRPORT SECURITY 6. PEOPLE AND CUSTOMER SERVICE I will help you transition into your NEW AVIATION LIFE today, as well as equip you with the tools (my included AVIATION NEWB SURVIVAL GUIDE) to grow as you progress into whatever aviation life you are pursuing. This is a life transition. It's everything you need to know to successfully launch your aviation life! I went fairly deep in my book, information-wise, and although it's a book for 'newbs', the amount of reference information I included will help you long after you complete the AIRPORT BOOT CAMP course! It's over 200 pages, with lots of pics, simple diagram, reference charts, a 400+ word practical glossary of aviation words (including unofficial 'insider" words), and so much more. EVERYTHING you need. It's optimized for mobile so you can always have it on you and available. It's THE book I wish I had when I first started. Just a quick mention in case you're wondering what my 'creds' are. I was an airport kid. We lived one mile from runway 33 at Bradley Int'l Airport (BDL) and my extended family all lived in the same area. Many of them worked at BDL in one capacity or another. Everyone's outdoor furniture, cars, and playscapes were blanketed with a thin coat of jet exhaust residue and I loved it. I spent many a day on my bike eating ice cream and watching planes land and takeoff. Back then the ground would shake and rumble as the jet engines roared, popped, and screamed as they launched into the sky. Before engine 'hush kits' were developed. As a teen I spent my days in the local Civil Air Patrol squadron at my airport, always enjoying the aviation 'spirit' in general. Top Gun came out during this time and that only enhanced my experiences. Once I became work-age legal, I continued my aviation 'education' working on the ramp in different capacities, including owning a couple aviation small businesses. I have trained many newbies. I always strived to make the training as smooth and 'fun' as possible so as not to discourage them in an environment that can be overwhelming at times. I took notes through all those years. Literally. Ideas for better training. Things I might change or make more interesting. I remembered the awful training videos I was tortured with through the years, only to check a box in my 'training' file to remain 'certified.' I mean, I watched the same BORING, (and hate to say it), sometimes INCORRECT training videos even though I had many years of ramp experience. I knew someday I would have to make my own training course, or at the very least a good BOOK for new people. Fortunately I was able to do BOTH. AIRPORT BOOT CAMP isn't your dad's or your grandpa's old-school training course. This is outside the boring 'norms'. It is intentionally unconventional...I push the envelope in some of the modules, risking embarrassment, but knowing it will at least be memorable. With that, hopefully you will retain a bit more than you would by falling asleep watching the same videos I probably watched. My hope is that educating with a little entertainment thrown in will help you remember what was taught a little easier. It really doesn't have to be painful. This is a training REVOLUTION, or something like that. Because I really do care. This is a 'CERTIFICATION' course. Because I said so. I successfully trained many people on the ramp and through 30 years of actual experience, developed AIRPORT BOOT CAMP. If you take this course and pass the exams, you will receive a digital certificate through Udemy. Boom. Certified. But keep learning with my book. Maybe someday MY course will spread as being THE certification to have. At the very least you paid for it which shows interest and initiative and will have a credential as an Airport Boot Camp graduate. Are you ready to begin your journey? Your aviation life begins now!See you on the ramp, Marc
