Maintenance Technician Course

In this post I will talk about how to obtain the title of superior technician in aeromechanical maintenance and how to obtain the license of technician in maintenance of airplanes B1.1 which is the necessary license to be able to sign in the documents of a commercial turbine aircraft. I will explain how to access these studies and what are the advantages of studying at the IES Son Pacs.

I have selected some questions that may come to your mind before starting the course and that can help guide you.

-How can I access these studies?
As it can be accessed in several ways, in each course there are limited places for people who access through the bachillerato degree, other places for people who access by an vocational course of the same family or another family, there are also places for who access with an entrance exam to the university or an entrance exam to a vocational course.

-Where do classes take place?
During the first course, classes are held every Monday at the IES Son Pacs and the second course every Friday. The rest of classes are given in Globalia Training in the industrial park of Son Noguera.

-In what language are classes and exams taught?
Most of the classes are given in Spanish or Catalan, test-type exams may have questions in Spanish and English. The developmental exams will be answered in Spanish.

-How are the exams?
The exams are type test with 3 possible answers. There will also be tests to develop a question where key points will be taken into account.

-With which note do I pass the exams?
In all the exams that you carry out in Globalia Training, a minimum grade of 75% is required for the module to be approved. In the exams you take in Son Pacs, 75% is also required as a minimum grade, less in FOL, and RET that the minimum grade is 50%.
In the case of developmental exams, the key points must be named to be scored. The form of the text (introduction, body and conclusion) will be taken into account and the letter is understood (capital letter). In the case of module 7 (maintenance practices), two development exams will be carried out and both will have to be passed in order to pass the development part of that module.
English classes are also taught, but there are no exams in exchange for writing a blog where you explain weekly what you have done in Globalia training and things in your life outside of training.

-Class attendance is mandatory?
Class attendance is mandatory in both Son pacs and Globalia Training. In Son Pacs you can miss 15% of the total time and the faults can be justified only for the notes of Son Pacs. The hours you are missing from Son Pacs cannot be justified in Globalia Formation. In the Globalia Training practices, 100% of the attendance is required and in the theoretical classes, 90% of the assistance of each module is required to take the exam of that module.

-Do I have a time limit to get my professional training?
As with all vocational courses, they have a limit of announcements that you can enroll in each subject, in this case there are 4 announcements.

-What titles will I get at the end of the course?
Well, just at the end of the training in work centers at the end of the course, you will obtain a degree as an aeromechanical maintenance technician. Then, if you have completed all the examinations of the modules necessary to obtain the license in Globalia training and have worked 2 years in the maintenance of turbine aircraft, you will be granted a certificate to request the license of aircraft maintenance from the state agency of air safety. This license will already allow you to sign in the technical documents of a turbine aircraft.

-To obtain the license I have a limit of announcements?
You don’t have a limit of calls for exams, but you can only show up 3 times in a year. At least 3 months must pass between each exam session. The approved modules are valid for 10 years, if after 10 years you don’t get the license, you will have to repeat the exams that have expired.

-What practices are carried out?
In Globalia training, practices related to each module are carried out, which should be carried out in the same way as when working with real airplanes, manuals will be consulted, the tasks performed will be noted and the tasks will be performed correctly in the plane or simulator that is available.

-What advantages does this vocational course have at IES Son Pacs?
Unlike other institutes that offer this vocational course, the IES Son Pacs has an agreement with Globalia Training which is a center 147 where examinations of official modules can be carried out. The training offered at Globalia is considered relevant for obtaining the license and only a 2-year work experience is required to obtain the license. You will not have to pay anything more than the registration to enroll in this course.

Car racing in the puig major and a hidden skydrol tank

This last weekend I went on an excursion to the Puig major, since this weekend there was a car race. Taking advantage of this event, the night before the race, I slept near to the village of Sóller, a small village located between mountains. Sóller seems to me a spectacular village since it is surrounded by mountains and with a special color in its houses. In addition, it has a small railway that reaches the port of Sóller. I camped near the road for the next morning to see the race from there. What impressed me most, is to see the sunrise from the mountain, with the town of Sóller just below. It was a full day that helped me to disconnect from the module 7 exam. Day 9 was my birthday and I brought cookies and croissants to class for my classmates. Upon arriving home, my partner had prepared a cake with 23 candles. The next weekend is her birthday and I will prepare some surprise ...  In theory class we have started the airplane's pneumatic system, but in practic...

Es salt des Freu, Randa and more corrosion

This week I took advantage of the good weather to go on a excursion to a couple of places that I had planned to go for a long time. The first excursion we have done this week, has been to visit a small river near Buñola where there is a waterfall called “Salt des Freu”. It is an excursion that does not take long if you are only going to visit the waterfall. My partner and I took less than 20 minutes to get from the car to the waterfall. To get there, the road is a bit narrow and has many curves, but it is not very difficult to get there. The trail that reaches the falls is located on the road from Bunyola to Orient. The trail that goes to the falls reaches Santa Maria del Camino. It is many hours of walking to get to Santa Maria. Here you can see some pictures we took when we reached the waterfall. The second excursion that my partner and I did was to climb the mountain of Randa. The mountain is right next to my house, but we took the car to reach the village of Randa. From there,...

Gender discrimination

With this poster that my colleagues and I have made we wanted to analyze: first of all the number of women who have studied in Globalia formation, the studies that we are doing. We have also analyzed where this great imbalance between men and women could come from, and that in the last seven years only six women have studied this vocational course. Another issue that we have analyzed is the difference in salary that exists between the two genders. Finally, we have found possible solutions and acts that are carried out to promote equality between men and women at work.  The idea of ​​making this poster came up to see a couple of films, it was based on the real stories, the themes of the topics they talk about, the inequality between people of different skin color, or people of different gender. Racial discrimination is an issue that we find in many films, especially in North American, which is where this type of discrimination most exists for many years. The history of North ...
