Kathy Brockway earns CM designation with AAAE
Business professor Kathy Brockway, who teaches accounting and finance courses at K-State Polytechnic, went back to school during the spring semester to earn a new designation – in aviation! Brockway successfully passed the Certified Member exam for AAAE, or American Association of Airport Executives. She audited the Airport Certified Manager course in the airport management degree option, which prepared her for the test. Brockway says many of her students are in aviation programs and by getting the designation she was able to learn more about their industry and craft ways to connect her business curriculum with their future careers.
