AET Certification & Endorsement Exams
Advance your career and industry knowledge by earning a certification
from ASTM International. These certifications demonstrate the
knowledge base of the advanced aerospace technician and promote
integrity, safety, and professionalism in the aerospace workforce.
Repair stations and aviation maintenance professionals across
the industry use these certifications to recognize qualified and
competent individuals. In fact, the FAA formally recognizes the AET
certification as equivalent to formal training when showing eligibility
for the issuance of a repairman certificate. Exams are free for AEA
Convention attendees, courtesy of the AEA Educational Foundation.
8:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. - Moderated by Ric Peri, AEA vice president of
government & industry affairs
A new addition to the annual AEA Convention, this
conference is an opportunity for the delegate community
(DER, DAR, ODA, etc.) to discuss relevant topics with
regulatory representatives from the FAA and TCCA.
In addition, there will be training sessions covering
regulations, guidance and policy.

skills necessary to support inflight connectivity system

As a delegate for the TCCA or FAA, are you finding it
increasingly difficult to complete your responsibilities?
Do you feel you have a voice in your industry?
Join us at the Delegates Conference to find out how the AEA can
provide support for the aviation delegate community.
This inaugural conference will explore ways to enhance delegate impact through
topics such as:
*
Improved relationships with civil aviation authorities through collaborative
discussions and advocacy.
* Training development that can be used for credit, not only for recurrent training,
but to expand delegation.
* A mentorship program to expand individual delegates.
* Expanded access to manufacturer's data and industry standards as
part of membership or at a reduced cost.
* Accessibility to liability insurance.
* Expanding your client base and collaborative partners.
