Military Fellowship Program: A&P Mechanic

Military Fellowship Program

SNC’s Military Fellowship Program partners with programs such as Skill Bridge and Hiring Our Heroes to provide fellowship opportunities to service members transitioning to the civilian workforce. These fellowships include up to six months of on‑the‑job industry training for eligible service members.

As an A/P Mechanic, you will assist with the repair, replacement, and maintenance of key components of aircraft. You will support mechanical and functional checks, including testing and replacement of defective parts, using a variety of tools and equipment for diagnosis. Repairs and maintenance will comply with national and international standards while maintaining safety and cleanliness of the hanger or workshop.

You will demonstrate knowledge in one of the three main components of aviation maintenance: airframe maintenance, power plant mechanics, or A/P components.
