What is the AMT Pathways Program?
Cape Cod Community College is home to the region’s premiere education and training program for Aviation Maintenance Technology (AMT). With three hangars filled with real aircraft located at Plymouth Municipal Airport, our program has been building aviation careers for students since 2017, sending dozens of graduates into rewarding, powerful careers.

With a need at both a local and national level for AMT professionals on the rise, we’re taking our program online so that we can partner with area high schools to create a seamless Pathways program, allowing you to start training while you’re still in high school.

You can take this one-of-a-kind online, remotely, and through our state-of-the-art “hyflex” model, which allows you the freedom to learn under the watchful eye of an FAA Certified Instructor, including weekly check-ins, reviews and learning opportunities with an additional lab component that can be scheduled monthly or through a 2-week summer program.

Through the program, you’ll:

• Be ready to take the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) General Certification Written Exam, placing you on the road to a full A&P Certification, getting a 2-semester leg-up on the certification training and process.
• Have the opportunity to use your certification to transfer to the AMT degree program at Cape Cod Community College or any of the other FAA Part 147 technical schools across the U.S.

How Does It Work?
This online-based AMT curriculum is the first of its kind, developed by the aviation community and offering soon-to-be maintenance professionals a direct path to a rewarding career. It aligns with the emerging FAA Mechanic Airman Certification Standards (ACS) to cover the knowledge and skills needed for the FAA Mechanic Certification.

Through a nationally recognized e-learning platform, students receive their education and training in multiple ways. This includes traditional methods like classrooms and in-person training on real aircraft at the 4Cs AMT hangars at Plymouth Municipal Airport, and online methods such as video lecture, e-books, and virtual/augmented reality simulations.
