About the Program


The Aircraft Maintenance Programs (Advanced Expert) specialization in Next-Generation Maintenance Programs equips aviation professionals with a comprehensive understanding of the regulatory frameworks, methodologies, and governance practices necessary to develop, manage, and optimize Aircraft Maintenance Programs (AMP). It also prepares professionals to implement smarter, data-driven maintenance strategies.

Participants will learn how to develop, control, and integrate maintenance programs within engineering organizations, maintenance operations, and safety management systems. The program covers specialized topics on Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM), Aircraft Health Monitoring (AHM), and the latest Maintenance Steering Group (MSG) developments.

The program integrates practical insights used by airlines and maintenance organizations, builds on concepts presented in the widely used Aircraft Maintenance Programs publication (Springer, 50,000+ downloads), and aligns with the Aircraft Maintenance Programs Body of Knowledge (AMP-BOK).
