A New Career In Design...

Eagle Engineering is a training and recruitment service predominately specialising in the aerospace industry. We run avionics and structures design courses in Cambridge for ex-military candidates and place them into industry as design engineers across the world. The courses are also suitable to anyone with an aerospace background who wants to move into design: not sure if you have an appropriate background? Do not worry we review your application and background and will not sign you up for a course unless we feel you have the necessary capability and realistic aspirations.

Eagle trainers are among the best qualified in their field having spent many years in the industry often as instructers for major companies and so are ideally placed to prepare highly qualified and experienced military avionics and airframes technicians for a career in design. Military candidates offer a flexible and professional approach to their work and are familiar with meeting deadlines and “getting the job done”. The combination of their years of experience as technicians combined with the training offered by Eagle makes them sought after design engineers.

Eagle Engineering Airframe EducationThe courses do not currently carry a formal qualification, although this is being reviewed. We are in the process of applying for ELCAS accreditation.

ELCAS have recognised the courses as being at least the equivalent of a level 3 NVQ.and work is in place to have the courses accredited as foundation degree modules. Once recognised by an appropriate awarding body, we will complete the process of applying for ELCAS accreditation. We measure ourselves on our success to date in finding work for candidates who have attended the course; which is an intergral part of the Eagle Engineering resettlement experience.

Until the courses are ELCAS accredited, we have slashed the rates to a credit crunch special of £995 inc vat. You can provisionally book a place on either course by forwarding the completed course application form and submitting your current CV. We will review your details and ensure the course will meet your aspirations and we will advise provisional acceptance, payment details and joining instructions. In parallel, see your assigned CTP Consultant and fill in a 363T Course Requisition Form which your consultant will sign.

10PM finishes are common, Saturday morning coaching is available! You may want to consider this when booking your accommodation, our advice is keep it local.

Avionics course

Avionics/Electrical Tradesmen are used to working with wiring diagrams which is one of the key design outputs. Additionally you will be competent with test activities and used to validating modification work.

The course, run at Marshall Aerospace in Cambridge, will broaden your system appreciation to include the equipment required to meet current communication and navigation requirements. 

You will be shown how to develop and produce a design solution and most importantly gain the experience necessary to take such a proposal through all the design steps necessary to create a fully certified installation. Candidates are given close guidance and help on the methods to be used to achieve a successful outcome.

CAD & Design principles course

Familiar with aircraft practices and probably involved with the application of modifications you will have the basics to pursue a career in design. The course will focus on teaching the skills necessary to design a basic modification and is the entry point most compatible with a service background and meets an industry skills shortage. The course teaches Computer Aided Design (CAD) backed by the design structural stressing substantiation not covered by a simple CAD Course.

This is what will set you apart and enable you to become a successful designer. Candidates are given close guidance and help on the methods to be used to achieve a successful outcome. You will need to be computer literate and competent in Math.s Pre course reading and exercises are provided to get you to an appropriate level.
