To apply for one of the slots, the candidate must be in their 2nd or 3rd year of High School or have already completed this educational stage.

The goal is to attract students interested in building a solid career in the aeronautics sector by providing qualified technical training for free.

Get to Know the Technical Course in Aeronautical Maintenance – Airframe

The Technical Course in Aeronautical Maintenance in Airframe at IFSP prepares qualified professionals for the disassembly, inspection, and maintenance of aircraft.

Practical activities are conducted in a modern hangar, equipped with laboratories that simulate the real environment of workshops and maintenance centers.

During the training, students learn to diagnose the operational conditions of the different parts of the aircraft and to perform detailed visual inspections.

The course also trains students to carry out cleaning, lubrication, minor repairs, assembly, and replacement of parts and systems, as well as interventions in structures, hydraulic, pneumatic, and flight control systems.

Upon completing the course, the student will receive a diploma in Technical Aeronautical Maintenance – Airframe qualification, recognized by CRT-SP (Regional Council of Industrial Technicians of the State of São Paulo).

Furthermore, they can continue their studies in higher education and will be eligible to take the theoretical aptitude exam from ANAC (National Civil Aviation Agency) to obtain the Aeronautical Maintenance Mechanic (MMA) license.

Also lasting 24 months and offered in the evening, the Technical Course in Aeronautical Maintenance in Powerplant at the Federal Institute is aimed at those who wish to specialize in aircraft engine maintenance.

The training can be done concurrently or subsequently to High School.

The technician trained in this free technical course will be able to schedule, control, and execute preventive and corrective maintenance on powerplants, following the technical standards established by manufacturers and regulatory agencies, both national and international.
