What is AME OJT for AME Students?

What is AME OJT for AME Students?


AME OJT is an ON JOB TRAINING for Aircraft Maintenance Engineering students for six months and it’s a practical training from Aviation Organization approved by DGCA India. After two and half years of theoretical training from the AME colleges or Institute students are gone out for this OJT to different Aviation industries all over India. Those candidates successfully completed this 6 months training from these organizations can
receive their course completion (CC) certificate from the institute where he/she studied AME course.


Some students trying OJT abroad, but there is a problem in that. If you did AME course from India, you have to do the OJT also from India itself. And it is compulsory according to DGCA CAR rules and regulations. If you are not getting the training from aviation industries, some institutes itself providing hands on training like OJT and you can do the same in order to complete the AME course and nothing wrong in that. In other case, if you are doing the training from aviation industries you may be getting the real job experience as you are going to work on that environment. However that is not a big deal if you are getting two much time waiting without getting the CC from institute after completing the theoretical training.

I have already posted the organizations where you can apply for OJT. It is not necessary that they will accommodate every students that apply for training. And these days more and more AME students are waiting for this OJT from organizations. At the same time aviation industries are less in our country to accommodate these many students who are completing AME course each year. So they are even asking fees from AME students to avail OJT from them and this is going to be very tough for some students who are economically backward. Anyways, there are some free training and interviews going on certain periods in HAL, Air India, Jet airways etc…and they are taking candidates who are eligible for training and job after if they found fit
