Are you uncertain about your future? Many students think that the only path to success is studying for the "Bachillerato" and spending four or five long years at a University, only to face a job market full of uncertainty. But there is a smarter, faster, and more exciting option: Vocational Training in the aeronautical sector.
If you are looking for a career with zero unemployment and high salaries, you need to listen closely. The reality of the aviation industry has changed completely. Right now, there is a massive shortage of professionals. In Europe alone, 85,000 aircraft maintenance technicians will be needed over the next ten years.
The Companies Are Chasing You
In the past, students had to beg for internships. Today, the situation is the opposite. Major companies are coming directly to the schools to find talent. They are desperate for skilled hands. These companies are looking for students who are responsible, hard-working, and eager to learn.
A Modern Way to Learn: The "Dual Training" Model
Aviation Group is adapting to new regulations to make your entry into the workforce even faster. They are implementing a new "Intensive Dual Training" model.
- Year 1: You complete all your theoretical and practical classes at the school.
- Year 2: You spend the entire year working 100% of the time at a real company.
This solves the biggest problem in education today: the gap between theory and practice. Why choose a traditional path with no guarantees? Skip the uncertainty of university. Choose Vocational Training and start your career in the sky.
• MRO: Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (Mantenimiento).
• EASA: European Union Aviation Safety Agency (Agencia de Seguridad Aérea).
• AMT: Aircraft Maintenance Technician (Técnico de Mantenimiento / TMA).
