HELP - AVIATION INDUSTRY QUESTION

All,

Is there anyone who has emmigrated or has been accepted that has followed a similar type of career path:

4 year indentured apprenticeship with British Aerospace as an Aircraft Fitter, qualification gained was City and Guilds Mechanical Production Competences Part I & II (Engineering Craft Skills)
6 years experience as an Aircraft Fitter
1 year experience as an Aircraft Maintenance Planning Engineer
4 years experience as an Aircraft Manufacturing Engineer with BAE SYSTEMS
2 years experience as a Senior Manufacturing Engineer with BAE SYSTEMS
1 year experience as an Engineering Team Leader with BAE SYSTEMS


I know there won't be many out there with this but something similar, what I am trying to do is sastify the main occupation title on the EOI. If you have any ideas or would suggest a different title then please do so.

I have used the title MECHANICAL ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN, the final question is does this title require a degree or do my trade certificate's satisfy the qualification requirements?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards

Chris

Hi Chris,
Sounds like a great job!

Trade qualifications usually have to be assessed by the NZQA for suitability within New Zealand. Having said that though, you seem to have completed a formal apprenticeship and have many years experience behind you which will be invaluable.

I'm sure I saw something about aircraft engineers somewhere, i'll check it out and get back to you on that one.

All the best
