Professor Mitchell said many students already have some work experience in the aviation industry. 鈥淧eople interested in the program are working in the industry, some are working in other areas. Some of our students work at major airlines, and they get interested in the mechanic work.鈥�

The evening schedule kicks off in the spring 2025 semester January 21, with classes Tuesday through Thursday evenings and every other Saturday. All core classes are available at night for the certificate and associate degree pathway in Aviation Technology. Graduates are prepared to apply for the FAA oral, written, and practical exams for the Airframe and Powerplant Technician License.

The evening program is full time, comprising the same number of hours as the day program, but in a condensed format to allow for a full-time work schedule during the day. Aviation Technology covers five semesters total, including one summer term.

鈥淭here鈥檚 definitely a big need in the industry,鈥� said Mitchell, 鈥淎nd this schedule offers another a spring start option for those interested in Aviation Technology.鈥�

NCC recently began to use space at the Nashua Airport for student training. 鈥淭hat is where we do all our aircraft movement, aircraft servicing, weight and balance, marshalling, taxiing, and talking to Air Traffic Control. So that鈥檚 part of the program too, learning how to work in an airport environment.鈥�

Prospective students who come from a military or aviation industry background can also explore how to earn Credit for Prior Learning, said Mitchell. 鈥淎nd if someone already has their Airframe certificate and they just need their Powerplant, we can work with that too. We鈥檙e organizing the curriculum to have Powerplant senior year, so it would shorten the path for students who just need one certificate, versus needing the Airframe and Powerplant.鈥�

Students can choose to pursue their Aviation Technology certificate or associate degree. The certificate has the core aviation classes, and the degree has the core classes as well as general education courses like English, math, and humanities.

鈥淩ight now, a third of our students are certificate only,鈥� said Mitchell. 鈥淭he degree pathway is a good idea for folks interested in more management positions. Those who are interested in the mechanic work are happy with the certificate pathway. The degree opens more options, to, for instance, become a shift supervisor someday.鈥�

Recent graduates have gone on to work at local partners such as Delta Airlines, Equus, and Pro Star Aviation.
