Launch your career into the blue skies

Why study aviation online?

Become part of the rapidly growing aviation industry. Adopt a practical and industry-focused approach to learning the science and theory of flight. Use your aviation course as a pathway to a career in the commercial or passenger airline industry or with government organisations, like the Australian Defence Force and the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA).

Begin working towards a career as a pilot, or answer the challenge of changing aviation management practices. Work in areas as diverse as maintenance and repair, air traffic, human resources, airport or airline operations, tourism or rural farming operations.

Studying online means that you can work in your learning around what you’re doing, whether you have a background in aviation, or you’re just starting out.
