Get yourself in an airline training program by hook or by crook.. this is where the aircrafts are!
Colleges and other learning institutions wise, I'll put MIAT as my first choice.

APR will prepare you for DCA's BCAR Section L.
MAS is going back to BCAR Section L too.

There's an 'Engineering' forum with lots of threads.. have a look.

EASA-66 Categories of licences:

Category A ( Maintenance Certifying Mechanic):
Basic A category License + Task Training for minor taks (tyre and brake change etc. and up to a weekly check) + Company Certification Authorization for specific Tasks,

Category B1
Maintenance Certifying Technician (Mechanical):
Basic B1 category License + Type Training (i.e. Line & Base Maintenance per ATA 104 Level III) + Company Certification Authorization, permits the holder to issue certificates of release to service (CRS) following maintenance on mechanical and minor avionics and electrical systems.

Category B2
Maintenance Certifying Technician (Avionic)

Category C
The Category C licence permits the release of an aircraft to service in its entirety by a single certificate of release to service by one overall signatory, once all base maintenance work and checks have been completed in accordance with Part-145.

There normally won't be a Cat C requirements as under Approved Organization approval, it's a function under the Approval System and is assigned to the appropriately licensed Approval Holder.

I agree. Time to start a new/proper thread strictly on LAE/LAME, job descriptions, responsibilities and related functions.

Lestat,
May apology for a late reply!

After working on the floor.. thare are opportunities in Planning, QA, Training if you still do not want to loose contact with the aircrafts..
Earn big bucks becoming Technical Representative/Customer Support.
Join DCA? ( Not for the salary, obviously) This one needs goos aircraft coverage and QA experience preferably but not mandatory.

Go into the management. Managers and above if you're lucky!

Tools for own DIY thingy.. else.. sell to cover cost!

That is incorrect. Technical Service Engineers are graduate engineers without LWTR and OJT experience.

I just did..

All I can say is that it's not far from the TRUTH..

The aviation industry in Malaysia is kinda 'small'.. despite what the gov'ment is saying with regards to demands in the industry, NOTHING is being done to create job opportunities.. instead of growth our national airline is 'shrinking' so to speak..

Fortunately the 'other part' of the world is expanding hence the potential exodus of current positions that would hopefully create enough demand to sustain the industry...

You should be doing lots of searching and reading ! You should also went to the recently held STAR's Education Fair, PWTC where APR-ATC and DTS was there. I guess you missed it. Interest alone is not enough lah.. Make an effort!

What MAS Academy?

Please before you ask more 'not so intelligent' questions, read this thread:

Better way than what?

No one I guess... What do you need?

Greetings.
Am replying to an old thread.. almost a year..

1. Right now, virtually nil because of covid19 pandemic.. but things will kick in once we are are over this and the airlines starts to hire.
2. Salary varies from one airline to another. More value if you have experience and several aircraft type ratings to boot.
3. You can get your own pilot license lah.. Maintenance license is not the same as flying license meh.. You got B2, would you get class D? No isn't it?

No certificate from any training school even though it's approved under Part 147 Training Organization Approval.
What being recognized/accepted is the LICENSE by the local authorities, in our case it's CAAM.

Standard ruling.
NOT colour blind is a prerequisite to employment in aviation industry not withstanding the support services in the industry eg. HR, finance, accounts etc.

Most if not ALL airlines and MROs have this standard ruling.

Nothing much can be done but I know a few trainees is under going OJT with certain outfit, probably because of small numbers.
It's back to the ATO to talk/negotiate with the intended place of OJT.
Fixed wing trainees are facing this problem now due to most airlines are not operating as opposed to rotary wings as they are still in operations.

Let's hope and pray hard that this pandemic will be over soon... the whole world is facing the same issues.

hey teddie! Good to know you're still lurking around here!
How're you doing? What's new on your side?

I was cleaning up my bookmarks and saw this thread.. so I checked it out.. With FB, forum activities are quite slow unlike the good old days when I am always in the Audiophile section.

Left the airline industry way back in 2009 (AirAsia) now in a local privately owned MRO.
So I am still somewhat in the aviation industry.

Hey.. so far so good. Good to be alive and 'working' during this dreaded pandemic.

MH is about to 'close shop' as Khazanah is no longer interested to pump anymore monies in MAB..

Something is about to happen so keep your eyes/ears open eh..?

Yup, SZB.
Sure thing when this MCO is over. God willing.
