Not at all lah! This is what forums are for.. helping out one another!

That I have to give it to MATA, they're a good seller!
If you wereto ask DCA, they should be able to advice and give you good options for you to decide.
I teach in an ATO.. that is all I will reveal.

The problem with MIAT approval lies with the QAM himself.. enough said!

camel. Do not be despair.
Finish your course. Pass ALL your required modules(13 for Cat B1.1) then get into the industry to gain that live aircraft experience for your license grant..
There is still hope for you yet. Trust me.

Unfortunately, you are correct!
What you and the guys need to do now is pressure the management. Write letters, lots of them.
Talk to the Dekan (my senior and friend).. En. Hyder, also a friend but he gave up on that QAM.. or Prof. Zahir.

You're telling me that you're only interested in the engines and the hydraulic system?

That is correct, and do you actually know what are they?

Correct. It's on page 1!

You're still unclear of the subject matter, needs and requirements.
Please take your time to read from first page, slowly.

maryjane,
For Q3. No, it need not be EASA's Part 145. Local Regulatory Body's Part 145 is sufficient.
But from my point of view here is the catch.
That country should be a member of JAA, recognized, subscribed and implement the JAR as part of their Aviation Regulation

APR's Aircraft Mechanics Level 1 and 2 is NOT a license programme.
It's a mechanic's and technician's qualification programme.

Mechanic/Technician/Licensed Engineer, who will have higher pay? Obvious isn't it?

camel90, very good answer!
You have improved leaps and bounds!

I can assure you that DCA will mention two names, one is obviously APR. The other DTS(Dilog Training Services).
In another forum, from the last count, there are about 18 organizations offering this so called EASA-66 and/or DCAM Part 66 courses partnered with some diploma in aircraft maintenance, whatever.
Approved or not, at the end of the day just ask, will you be getting the DCAM AML(Engineer)?

What he meant was; 'Is there anyone here taking DCAM Part-66 module examinations?'

Correct, bandit?
BTW, why are you enrolling in June? Can't make it in April? PLKN?

loudness.jr, for the millionth time, NO!
Have you not read the postings here or you have short term memory loss?

I have mentioned elsewhere that MIAT/MARA has stopped the EASA-66 AeroBildung course. They had 2 batches and thats about it.
None of them has got the license yet as they're still collecting their live aircraft experience.A few managed to get into MAS, don't know what happened to the rest.
That was the last update I've got unless someone else know the latest status?

Well, the course could be reinstated back!
IF they're a new batch, then it's 'good luck' to them lah. The plus part is that the CAA UK has recognized the AeroBildung certificate of Completion for the intent and purpose of licence application.

It's an LAME course and you're a TAME!

LAME is a job position/designation. It's also a salary scale/grade in MAS.

Too bad. You did not use the exhibitor's directory/guide?
Honestly if you come for the intake interview and I found out about this, you may not get the position! Why? Isn't it obvious, you're not resourceful.. Not very engineer like ..

How can TAFE provide EASA license? Big con job I tell you!

In connection? Maybe sending students for OJT..

Initially they use EASA-66 syllabus, with EASA-66 license, it is converted to DCAM AML-66 licence.

Why MIAT?

I don't see any good arguements/reasons why one would need to fall back to a degree.
The demand for a licenced persons is high. We all know the market is flooded with degree and diploma holders. The DCAM licence is recognized as same level as Degree with Honours, thats the scale if you're gonna work in the government. Similarly LAME salary is way higher than a degree holder.
I know one(a girl) fresh rotary wing engineer starting pay is RM12,000. Do you want to waste time getting a 'useless' piece of scroll while the others are grabbing the opportunities? And these opportunities may not be there when you pass out later... Think!

Yup. You're still confused..

No No NO. MIAT is a university. (UniKL)
In order to get you easy study loan, MARA and PTPTN, thats why they coupled the Diploma together with licence programme. It was okay with the old syllabus, ie BCAR Section L.
Now with DCAM Part 66, they have not submitted their revised MTOE to comply with AN1201, to enable them to be a Part 147 ATO.

I think I have repeated this for the millionth time!

meddie, funding wise, you're paying a monthly installment of RM1800 for 4 years. You're not paying RM90,000 one lump sum!
