 | Aviation Maintenance Technology |
The Aviation Maintenance Technology (AMT) Program is an intensive evening program that students can complete while working during the day. Classes are scheduled in nine-week blocks, five days a week from 4:30pm to 10:30pm (holidays excluded). The coursework can be completed in two years as a full-time student, or you can attend part-time and take courses as your personal schedule allows. The AMT program is located in a well-equipped facility adjacent to the Oakland International Airport and provides an opportunity for students to gain the skills needed to work in a number of A&P careers.
Students are expected to buy their own tools in addition to paying for tuition, books, lab fees, and exam fees. Total costs for the entire program average $3200, considerably less than what you would be expected to pay at a private school.
| Certificates, Degrees, and Licenses |
Certificates of Achievement - You can choose a path in either Airframe or Powerplant mechanics, and will receive a Certificate of Achievement in your pathway when you have passed all of the course requirements.
A.S. Degree - Students can graduate with an A.S. in Aviation Maintenance Technology with the completion of the General Education coursework in addition to the AMT coursework.
FAA Licences - The courses are approved by the Federal Aviation Administration and will also prepare you to take the FAA exams. Passing the coursework and the appropriate exams will qualify you for an Airframe and Powerplant Mechanic License as well as a General Radiotelephone License.
All credits earned in the AMT program at College of Alameda are transferable to San Jose State University and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University.
