International Application Form:

Statement of Purpose Upcoming Changes 

After an internal review on best practices, the current international application form will be subject to changes streamlining the process of submitting an application to Aviation Australia.

The current protocol requires the completion of the GTE component as well as an additional statement of purpose (SOP) to be assessed by the admission team.

The new application form will now absorb the SOP documentation expanding the GTE questions while also providing the candidates a maximum amount of words to address them.

These changes will be adopted starting from the 27th of March and agents are encouraged to provide feedback to customerexperience@aviationaustralia.aero.

Improvements & Accessibility to the

Aviation Australia Website

Since the beginning of 2023 the marketing and sales teams have worked together to improve content and accessibility for the Aviation Australia website. This has resulted into the following changes:

• Recite: This is a cloud-based assistive technology toolbar that makes our website digitally inclusive by allowing visitors to customise content so that they can consume it in ways that work best for them. The most valuable improvement is that recite can translate, read and adjust the website according to your needs. To start using it, simply click on the “accessibility” button or follow this link: Aircraft Maintenance Engineering Courses | Aviation Australia
• Adjustments to EASA landing pages, brochures and information: In an attempt to provide clearer information to applicants and agents, the Avionics and Mechanical landing pages have been re-worked and can be accessed here: Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (EASA) Courses | Aviation Australia
