Avionics News January 2018 - 61

Avionics News: Do you partner with local
industry, and if so, how is it working?
Sabold: PIA is currently in the infancy stages of a
partnership with Delta TechOps. The company recognizes
the need for technicians now and going forward in the future,
so it interviewed aviation schools across the country. More
than 100 criteria were used in Delta's selection process,
including equipment and facilities, level of hands-on-training
and quality of teaching. We are proud that all four of PIA's
campuses were selected to be part of the program.
The Delta TechOps program is not only about training
technicians today, but a big part of the program is to find
ways to attract younger students into the aviation industry on
an ongoing basis. Finding skilled technicians is a need that is
not going away.
Once Delta attracts these new students, the company
needs training that will increase the skills and quality of the
technicians entering the workforce right out of school. It
doesn't want to continually retrain new hires, as it often must
do now.

school? Do you have any programs to actively attract new
avionics students?
Sabold: Students are typically drawn to PIA out
of an interest in aviation. Recently, the need for skilled
technicians in the aviation industry has been getting some
much-needed publicity. Prospective students are excited
about the opportunity of a short training period and a
stable, well-paying career when they graduate.

Avionics News: What are you hearing from
industry on your placements and your programs about the
skill levels of your graduates?
Sabold: While PIA is hearing positive feedback
concerning graduates in the workplace, there is one trend
that is quickly increasing. More companies are requiring
avionics technicians to have their A&P. This has led many
students to take both the aviation electronics technology
program and the aviation maintenance technology
programs at PIA. q
