Earn College Credit at Innovation Center

The Innovation Center is part of St. Vrain Valley School District partners with Aims to offer qualifying students the opportunity to earn tuition-free college credit in high school through concurrent enrollment courses. Students can apply to the Innovation Center to accelerate their career path and develop real-world skills that help them grow into tomorrow’s leaders, innovators, and change-makers.

"I have very much enjoyed the hands-on learning I have gained from the Concurrent Enrollment Aeronautics course I took at the Innovation Center. The course, UAS Flight Concepts and Training, helped me figure out what steps I need to take for the career I want to pursue. I was also able to earn my FAA Remote Pilot Certificate, which allows me to fly a drone for hire and is a great head start on pursuing a career in aviation. I recommend this course to other students because it will help them figure out the world of aviation and all the possibilities that come with it!"
