6-Week Transition Course for Military Veterans
Transitioning from active military duty to a civilian career can be both challenging and rewarding. For service members with aviation maintenance experience, becoming an FAA-certified Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) mechanic is a natural progression. US Aviation Academy is proud to offer a 6-week A&P transition course, specifically designed for military veterans with an 8610-2 authorization. This course is now available at three of our premier campuses: Denton, Texas; San Marcos, Texas; and Atlanta, Georgia.
Why A&P Mechanic Certification?
The A&P certification opens doors to high-demand careers in aviation maintenance, with opportunities at airlines, MRO facilities, and corporate aviation operations. The skills veterans acquire during their military service often align seamlessly with FAA requirements, making the transition smooth and efficient.
