About the Programme
Aer Lingus Group is pleased to announce a four-year Aircraft Engineer Apprentice Programme, in partnership with SOLAS, Technology University Dublin (TUD), and South East Technological University (SETU). This comprehensive programme combines classroom learning with hands-on training, allowing successful candidates to earn while they learn. Upon completion, apprentices will qualify for an EASA B1 or B2 licence, paving the way for a fulfilling career with Aer Lingus.

Programme Structure
The programme consists of two main components: academic studies and practical training. Initially, apprentices will participate in classroom-based learning in Dublin, followed by nine months of hands-on training at our Shannon Training Centre. Subsequently, they will return to Dublin for further studies and work on our aircraft. Throughout the programme, apprentices will have access to expert guidance and mentorship from experienced engineers.

At Leaving Certificate Level, candidates must achieve a minimum of Grade O6/D or higher in English, Mathematics, Science, and any two other subjects.
