Aircraft Assembly Technician II, TCC (AR71)  Technical Certificate of Credit


Campus Locations: High School

New Program

This program will begin accepting students for Spring 2025.

The Aircraft Assembly Technician II certificate program will provide additional technical training to existing industry and individuals interested in obtaining aircraft structural assembly skills. This program will provide a minimum of training for job market entry and/or upgrading for existing industry personnel and could lead to continued training for a diploma. This program results from industry requesting new personnel with the skills addressed in the aircraft structural courses included in this program.

Program Outcomes: Upon graduation, students will demonstrate competence in performing riveting operations essential for constructing and repairing aircraft components. They will also be proficient in interpreting blueprints to identify dimensions, parts, tolerances, fasteners, and required processes for aircraft component construction and repair. Additionally, graduates will possess the skills to fabricate and repair bonded and composite aircraft parts, contributing to their readiness for roles in the aerospace industry.
