Owned by the Queensland Government and located
at Brisbane International Airport, Aviation Australia conducts specialised courses in aviation
engineering and flight attending (Cabin Crew).
Current industry clients include Qantas, Virgin Blue, Boeing,
Cathay Pacific, Air New Zealand and many more. This is a professional training centre used by major airlines
for staff training.

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
Upon graduation from Aviation Australia, students will have completed
all of the theoretical components of the EASA B1.1, Turbine aeroplane,
B 1.3 Turbine helicopter or B2 Avionics licence as well as 600
hours of practical on the job training.
Single DAME B1: 1581 theory 651 prac
Diploma (or Dual
Diploma) of Aircraft Maintenance Engineering and an EASA
Certificate of Examination Completion.
EASA Part 145 work experience - reduces the time required before you can apply for the EASA Licence to only 2 years.
In the near future graduates will be given the opportunity to
apply for Aviation Australia's internship programme in order to
gain employment in Australia. This programme which is currently
under trial, utilises the 442 Occupational Trainee visa (http://www.immi.gov.au/students/sponsored/otv/)
and employment is arranged through Aviation Australia's Employment
Services division.
Aviation Australia can not "guarantee" employment or
a place in the programme as positions are dependant on employers'
needs and number of applicants in each group of graduates. We
do however, expect to be able to assist most students who wish
to enter this programme.
