Aircraft maintenance apprentice Review

Training to be an aircraft engineer. Studying modules, completing upk's, & completing practical tasks such as metal working, or hangar tasks.

I have learned skills such as filing things down to size, riveting, & other metal working tasks

Although it revolves around my area of interest, it is a very large amount of work for the first year, which can make it stressful. Although all of this is necessary for the a licence I am working towards.

The apprenticeship is well organized, & we are told what is expected of us

We are given support for failed modules etc, & given accommodation.

We are expected to pass modules as early as possible, although we receive support & time to retake modules if we don't pass.

We are constantly given advice through our training provider on good practices that may make our life easier, & things not to do.

There are networking events available to attend.

Yes

It is a good opportunity to become an aircraft engineer, without having to worry about training costs. You must be competent however

Understand massively that the next few years aren't going to be easy, & you must take sacrifices in your social life outside work if you wish to succeed.
