Aviation apprenticeships are a fantastic foot in the door for anyone trying to establish a career in this exciting industry. Both the private sector and the government recognise that investing in future skills is vital for the long term well being of the economy. Aviation apprenticeships are available for school leavers, but for those looking to enter at a higher, more technical level, it makes sense to obtain a degree before looking to see what apprenticeships are on offer. Writing to a major carrier or a local airport may yield results as both types of organisation offer a range of aviation apprenticeships.
Airports often have a training facility or centre of excellence attached to them. They often attract public funding as both central and local government organisations are well aware of the value of aviation apprenticeships. Councils want to invest in the future of young people from the local community along with educational establishments who maintain close links and publicise aviation apprenticeships in their area. With industry and government working in tandem, the future looks bright for the aviation industry. Be proactive. Write to local aerospace companies, airlines, councils and colleges. Your reward could be a fantastic opportunity to receive world class training in the form of an aviation apprenticeship.
