Additionally, a thorough review of the course catalog and a personal or virtual tour of the campus before enrolling in any aviation
maintenance program will lead the prospective student or employee
seeking continuing professional development to a well-informed
decision - which ultimately produces a better educational and
training experience and greater student satisfaction.

Benefits of Aviation Industry
Engagement with Career Colleges
Everyone wins when industry representatives are actively engaged
with career and technical educational institutions. Aviation associations, major commercial airlines, regional carriers, fixed base
operators, corporate aviation departments, private airports and
aircraft service providers of all types have been launching special
workforce development initiatives to address the need for mechanics
that extends far beyond the U.S.
Training at MIAT College of Technology and other career colleges along with seminars hosted by the National Business Aviation
Association and many others are equipping men and women of all
ages with the skills to become an aircraft maintenance technician.
Airlines and aircraft service operators are ramping up internships,

"externships" (paid on-the-job-training opportunities), job fairs and
recruiting missions at career colleges such as MIAT. Many are hosting field trips to their maintenance and repair facilities.
Airline industry representatives from United Airlines, Spirit
Airlines, Western Aviation and Standard Aero are just some of the
aviation industry leaders that serve as members of MIAT's Program
Advisory Committee at the Houston campus. They also serve as
guest speakers for classes and commencement ceremonies. As classroom sponsors, United and Spirit decorate MIAT's classrooms with
branded posters and information to keep them "top of mind" among
the student population.
Joe Condelo, maintenance manager at United Airlines' Bush
Intercontinental Airport maintenance facility and an MIAT Program
Advisory Committee member, served as a featured speaker at MIAT's
Houston campus graduation ceremony in April 2019. Condelo spoke
not only about the growth of the industry and career opportunities
ahead, but also about the importance of key values and character
attributes for employees: integrity, a solid work ethic, accountability,
responsibility, teamwork and leadership are all essential to succeeding in the workplace.
United Airlines and MIAT have formalized a training agreement
for employees and their relatives. Currently, 42 individuals affiliated
with United Airlines have enrolled at MIAT's Houston campus to
start or continue their aviation maintenance knowledge and skills
development.
