Aviation Australia is excited to showcase the FAME (Female Aircraft Maintenance Engineer) program. FAME is an aviation industry-first initiative designed to support and nurture our future female aircraft maintenance engineers as they build their careers in a traditionally male-dominated field. This is an opportunity for you to lead the change and be part of the growing female engineering community.
The program is dedicated to increasing female participation in the aircraft maintenance engineering workforce across Australia, by providing students with support from key networks and industry throughout their studies.
Embedded within the CertIV Aeroskills course, the FAME program is available for all females enrolled at the Aviation Australia Brisbane, Darwin and Cairns campuses.
