The airBaltic Technical Academy Mechanics Program is a career advancement opportunity for individuals with technical skills who want to grow in aviation maintenance. This four-year program, conducted at airBaltic's Technical Department in RIX Riga Airport, offers a unique work-and-learn model with a full salary. From day one, participants are employed by airBaltic, dedicating three years to becoming aircraft mechanics while working towards EASA Part-66 certification. They will also receive Airbus A220-300 type training and on-the-job practical experience.
