"END OF UNPAID APPRENTICESHIP"

Published by DGCA:-

In order to develop core career skills and learning opportunities which would
significantly enhance the employability of Aircraft Maintenance Engineers (AMEs), the
Ministry of Civil Aviation has launched a One-Year Standard AME Apprenticeship
Training in collaboration with various airlines, Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul
(MRO) organizations, and Non-Scheduled Operators (Helicopters).
The course content has been standardized and streamlined. Due transparency
is being ensured in the process of training, right through from selection of candidates
until grant of Certificate of Completion and possible induction of successful AMEs by
prospective employers. Students, passing out from DGCA - approved AME Training
Institutes, who have also passed the exams for Papers-l and 2 (or equivalent
Modules) conducted by DGCA would be eligible to apply. From the merit list of all
registered candidates generated on the AME Apprenticeship portal of the Ministry,
final selection for apprenticeship would include assessments/interviews by potential
employers registered on the portal with pre-announced vacancies.
Selected candidates would be trained academically with a substantial
component of field experience using Standard Training Modules for Fixed Wing,
Helicopters and Avionics Streams. Employers would indemnify the students through
a suitable insurance policy, besides paying a minimum stipend of Rs. 3,542 per month
(or as may be revised from time to time by the Apprenticeship Act, 1961), or higher
as per the company's policy. A Certificate of Competence, which is also recognized
as a Certificate of Experience of one-year by DGCA and other stakeholders, would
be issued by the establishment concerned to every successful Apprentice.
An interactive portal (www.ameapprenticeship.gov.in) for registration, tracking,
monitoring, and disseminating information on AME Apprenticeship is being developed
on the Ministry's website which is expected to be activated shortly. It would serve as
a common platform for all stakeholders in AME Apprenticeship training, i.e. students,
establishments, academia, training institutes, and regulatory agencies, to register and
track and monitor the implementation of such skilling.
All industry stakeholders are also advised to align their apprenticeship training
as per the Standard AME Apprenticeship Training programme of the Ministry
