Phase 1: Theoretical Training (Approx. 2,400 Hours)
Through our EASA Part-147 approved partner training organizations, students undergo 2,400 hours of classroom and workshop instruction covering all EASA Part-66 Cat B1.1 modules. The curriculum ensures strong theoretical knowledge across aeroplane turbine systems, structures, engines, avionics fundamentals, and safety procedures. EASA Cat B1.1 Modules Covered: Mathematics Physics Electrical Fundamentals Electronic Fundamentals Digital Techniques / Electronic Instrument Systems Materials & Hardware Maintenance Practices Basic Aerodynamics Human Factors Aviation Legislation 11A. Turbine Aeroplane Aerodynamics, Structures & Systems Gas Turbine Engines 17A. Propeller Assessments & Exams Each module is assessed by a multiple-choice exam and/or essay test. Students must pass all module exams as per EASA standards to progress to Phase 2. Practical workshops and lab sessions are integrated to strengthen technical understanding. -
Phase 2: On-the-Job Training (2 Years)
After completing the theoretical phase, students have the opportunity to progress to the On-the-Job Training (OJT) stage through our exclusive network of EASA Part-145 approved partner organizations. This two-year practical training takes place in live aircraft maintenance environments such as international airports, airline hangars, or certified MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul) facilities. During this phase, students work under the direct supervision of licensed aircraft maintenance engineers, gaining valuable real-world experience in line and base maintenance operations. The training provides hands-on exposure to critical tasks including aircraft troubleshooting, inspection, repair, and technical documentation, specifically for turbine-powered aeroplanes. This practical OJT component is an essential requirement for obtaining the EASA Part-66 B1.1 Aircraft Maintenance Engineering license, ensuring that graduates are fully equipped with the technical skills, safety knowledge, and professional competence needed to excel in the global aviation industry. -
Pathway to EASA Licensing
By completing Phase 1 (Theoretical Training) and Phase 2 (On-the-Job Training) through our partner network, students become eligible to apply for the EASA Part-66 Cat B1.1 license, opening doors to global career opportunities in airlines, MROs, and aviation authorities. -
Please Note
This course includes only the 2,400-hour theoretical training (Phase 1) delivered through our exclusive EASA Part-147 approved partner organizations. The 2-year On-the-Job Training (OJT) component (Phase 2) is not included in the base course package. OJT placement can be arranged separately upon request through our EASA Part-145 approved partners and will be subject to additional charges.
