Apprenticeships

[captainmacuk]

Hi guys,

Just wanting to know of any apprenticeships you guys might know off, i am an aircraft engineer wannabee and apart from the BA professional engineer program(PEP) and the RAF technician apprenticeship where are the other openings in the industry for wannabbees like myself, do your companys do them?

I am currently studying aeronautical engineering at college and have 6 weeks experience with BA engineering at Glasgow on 737,(just thought i would tell you that)

If you would like to move to oz I believe that there are a few places going in Qantas and as few of the regional airlines.


Cheers :D

We placed many of our apprentices at AirUk at Norwich. You might try them. The quality of the resulting tradesmen is encouragingly high. (With the advent of JAR66, most are now sent to Lufthansa. :( )

There is always BAE or Rolls Royce and if you're really desparate the MOD run a Graduate Engineer programme.

The BAMC scheme is a 4 year traineeship,their term not mine,during which you study for your JAR 66 ticket at CAMT( top college NOT) after the scheme you come out as approved mechanic and wait for a technicians job
