Aviation Maintenance Technology
Transportation & Mechanics
Aviation Maintenance Technology (AMT) is a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approved Part 147 core curriculum for students who want the knowledge and skills necessary to become Airframe & Powerplant (A&P) mechanics.
Students are taught 45 FAA-mandated subjects that are divided into 3 sections; General, Airframe, and Powerplant. Those who complete National Aviation Academy’s (NAA) 14 month, 2,000 clock hour AMT program are then eligible for FAA maintenance testing to earn certifications.
A&P certified technicians work in commercial, corporate and/or general aviation. Additional opportunities include: helicopters, airships, manufacturing, unmanned aerial vehicles, aerospace, and other exciting parallel industries.
NAA’s Aviation Maintenance Technology program is an attractive option because it oTers quality training FAST. The typical aviation maintenance program at other institutions ranges from 17-24 months in length. National Aviation Academy’s AMT program is comprehensive, yet fast-paced, to help students pass their FAA exams, become certified, and move into their careers.
National Aviation Academy uniquely, through FAA approval (14 CFR 65.77), allows qualified students eligibility for early oral and practical testing.
Reward
This feature allows qualified students the privilege of earning required certifications and working in a career field immediately upon completion of training. No longer do students need to wait until after graduation to take their A&P examinations and begin the interview process for employment. This means working in the field of aviation sooner, maximizing earning potential.
