Is there really such a course that can take 2 years at College, What do they teach you for goodness sake.

Most of what you would need to know can be learned pratically by working at an airport !

yes theres principles of flight, aviation law, ramp handling, emergancy ops, fuel planning, scheduled performance, weight and balance and it goes on and on! im really looking for dispatching for a few years experiance, want to become a pilot in future

Good luck, you'll probably find that many of the ground handlers often recruit.

I am still flabbagasted that they find enough to fill a college course as i have said most of what you list above can be learned " on the shopfloor " so to speak and practical experience will always be 10 times more useful than anything you learn in a class, Believe me !
