Engineering Foundations
The Flight One Certificate II in Aeroskills High School Programme introduces students to the fundamentals of aircraft maintenance engineering in a real aviation setting. Designed to align with high school STEM objectives, the course covers essential hand skills, workplace safety, and the basics of aircraft systems. Students gain transferable skills that are valuable not only in aviation but also in industries like automotive, mining, and manufacturing. The programme provides an overview of both avionics (electrical and navigation systems) and mechanical systems (engines, hydraulics, and airframes), preparing students for further studies or apprenticeships in engineering.
Pathways & Qualification Outcomes
This qualification equips students with entry-level skills for roles in aircraft maintenance workshops, supporting tasks like basic repairs and component servicing under supervision. Delivered by trainers with over 150 years of combined experience across commercial, military, and general aviation, the programme ensures students gain practical, industry-relevant knowledge. Designed to count as one school subject, students can consult with their school to integrate the course into their curriculum or take it as an additional subject. Schools may also recognise and report results toward a student’s academic record.
Aviation Engineering for High School Students
The Flight One Certificate II in Aeroskills High School Programme provides a hands-on introduction to aircraft maintenance engineering, covering both mechanical and avionics fundamentals. Designed to align with high school STEM objectives, the course equips students with transferable skills in workplace safety, precision hand tools, and aircraft systems. With training delivered by industry experts, graduates gain foundational knowledge applicable to aviation, automotive, mining, and manufacturing industries. This qualification prepares students for entry-level roles in aircraft maintenance workshops or further training in aviation engineering. Students can integrate the course into their school curriculum or take it as an additional subject with school approval.
