Upon completion of the course, you will qualify with a Diploma of Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (recognised Australia wide) and a European Union Safety Agency Certificate of Recognition (EASA COR – for the purpose of EASA Part-66 licence application).

Stage 2: you will then progress into the Bachelor of Engineering Technology (Aircraft Maintenance) delivered at CQ University. You will undertake additional 18 months of training having the chance to graduate with a Bachelor as well as meeting the requirements to obtain an Australian Remote Pilot Licence.

 

Please note the following before applying:
  • You cannot access the Bachelor component without completing the Diploma of Aircraft Maintenance Engineering first.
