From
2007, Aviation Australia opened their Aircraft Englineering Training
Centre to international students who are interested in gaining
a professional industry qualification. Engineering students will
have the opportunity to train in the same facilities as the airlines
use and will be trained by former or current airline engineering
staff. Training includes practical experience working on a range
of aircraft on campus including a functioning 727 aircraft owned
by the school. Training conforms to the EASA standard and covers
the theoretical component of the internationally recognised Aircraft
Maintenance Engineer's Licence.

Graduate
Outcomes and Employment
Australian Academic Diploma:
Graduates will receive a formal Australian academic qualification
certificate: Diploma of Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (or Dual
Diploma of Aircraft Maintenance Engineering) with transcripts
of academic results.
EASA
Part 147 Examination Completion Certificate:
In addition, successful graduates will receive the European Air
Safety Authority (EASA) Examination Completion Certificate - a
documentation that specifies the successfully completed theoretical
modules from the EASA Part 147 examinations. These examinations
are included (once each) in the course. This provides students
with all the theoretical components required toward gaining their
EASA Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence.
Australian
Trade Recognition:
The Aviation Australia Diploma of Aircraft Maintenance Engineering
(or Dual Diploma of Aircraft Maintenance Engineering) is registered
by the Australian government as a 2 year programme. However, graduates
are not automatically eligible for “trade recognition” within
Australia. To gain trade recognition for migration or other purposes,
graduates need to demonstrate that they have gained a minimum
of 900 documented hours of paid work experience with a relevant
employer ? inside or outside Australia.
Please note that paid or unpaid
work experience is not included in the diploma courses and the
requirements of the Australian Trade Recognition Authority are
subject to regular review and adjustment.
Employment
Opportunities:
To become a licensed aircraft maintenance engineer is a lengthy
but highly rewarding process that requires dedication and perseverance.
Aviation Australia graduates will qualify to work as an Aircraft
Maintenance Engineer and will receive on-going support and advice
in their endeavours to pursue a career as a Licenced Aircraft
Maintenance Engineer. Eligibility for licensing is gained once
a graduate has amounted 5 years of experience working as an Aircraft
Maintenance Engineer.
Graduates who are able to gain employment directly with a suitable
EASA Part 145 approved maintenance organisation may be able to
undertake supervised on-job-training and receive an EASA Part
147 approved Certificate of Recognition. These graduates will
then require only an additional 2 years of experience working
as an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer before becoming eligible to
apply for their EASA licence. Their work experience must cover
all aspects of aircraft maintenance studied at Aviation Australia
Aviation Australia works with
a number of industry partners both inside Australia and off-shore.
If our partners have positions available for graduates, we may
in some instances be able to assist our graduates by sponsorship
on an Occupational Training Visa (subclass 442). This visa will
allow up to 2 years of paid work experience. Positions however
are very limited for this programme and are not guaranteed.
Aviation Australia’s career centre will assist students to whatever
extent possible to gain introductions to potential employment
opportunities, however, employment is entirely the graduates responsibility
and global economic conditions, graduate numbers and immigration
issues are strong influencing factors that should be carefully
considered.
