How To Get Aircraft Maintenance License

EASA is the government body controlling the civil aviation in Europe. Many countries in the world adopted the EASA system. The licensing of aircraft maintenance engineers and mechanics is governed by Part 66 of the EASA document and the control of training school is under part 147.

Malaysia hd adopted the EASA system in January 2010. The Licenses for Malaysian is issued by DCA Malaysia. It is based on UK EASA license as such the licenses is widely recognized and accepted by UK.Many Malaysian find jobs in the middle east, Australia, Europe and Singapore

New Information..
The information on the slides was inserted a few months ago, the latest are as follows..

There were five schools, ATO (Approved Training School) under the previous BCAR Section L Licensing system. The five schools were,  MAS, MIAT, Delog, APR and MATA. When DCAM converted to part 66, the schools had about 6 months to convert to the new rulings. Currently 3 schools are approved under part 147. They are MAS, Dilog and APR.

MAS is conducting training for its own apprentices, Dilog is doing it for FELDA, leaving APR to handle the private students. MIAT is refocusing to be a private Education School under the Ministry of Education and MATA is starting a collaboration to start the Vocational School.

It is advised that the potential students to check the School approval from the authority to avoid future problems. There are many colleges claiming to conduct courses following EASA syllabus. This is misleading as the school can follow the syllabus but they may not be approved.
