The Aviation Powerplant Maintenance Technician certificate prepares students for certification as Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certified Powerplant Technician. Upon completion of the program, graduates will be prepared and equipped to take the FAA written, oral and practical exam. These programs are FAA part 147 approved (FAA #Q8UT5734K).
Graduates who pass the FAA exams will be qualified for employment in entry level positions in the aviation maintenance and manufacturing fields, and other fields requiring highly trained technicians.
Career and technical education courses in this program will qualify for credit for a period of ten academic years. Due to changing technologies, trends, and professional demands, courses completed ten or more years in the past will satisfy program requirements only if they are approved by the instructional school in which they were offered. Cohorted programs may have additional restrictions.
