The Holon Institute of Technology has agreed to work with Sinclair on developing joint education, training and research opportunities while seeking funding sources to help advance UAS capabilities and programs, according to Sinclair.
“This is a global industry that’s growing rapidly, and having the ability to share our unique expertise in UAS with others around the world is a strong reflection on the great work that’s being done here in the Dayton region,” said Deb Norris, senior vice president for workforce development.

The partnership is the first formal UAS agreement Sinclair has entered with an international institution of higher education. It could provide opportunities for students, faculty, and staff through study abroad and exchange programs focused on UAS and related fields, according to the community college.
Sinclair has a history of entering agreements with Israeli-based organizations. Previously the community college partnered with the Israeli simulations systems provider Simlat to bring leading-edge resources to the Sinclair’s UAS Simulation Lab, according to the college.
