- Hey guys, just wanted to share how my everyday life as a student of BCIT is. This video will pretty much show you what to expect and what things we do on a daily basis.
This is the Aircraft Maintenance Engineering Category M Program.
One of the struggles before I got accepted into the school, was not knowing what to expect in the everyday life as a student. This is common especially for internationally students and for newly landed immigrants.
Hope this video helps you out. If you have any questions, drop it down below. I also suggest visiting BCIT's website and dropping in for the info sessions as well.
ALSO! Please let me know if you like these kind of videos. If I have time to do them every week, I'd be more willing to do it. Comment down below!
As always, thanks for watching!
Poul
you've changed a lot! it was nice seeing your vlog again! this vlog is so interesting! more of this please 😊
+Reg Cea thank you. Definitely! Working on it
I will start my level 1 next week!!! Thanks your Vlog information.
Glad to have you back Poul! Looking forward to a vlog from you.
Thanks! I might post another one next week. Already filmed a vlog yesterday :)
This is awesome stuff!! Another Vancouver engineer vlogger :)
+Jake Voorhees hello! :)
Chilling man! I'm about to leave Vancouver tho so stay in touch!
great video. I started following your channel last year and i'm late to the party and i'm sure by now you're a pilot for PAL. keep up the great work! looking forward to more videos.
Do you still live with your parents and brother? Glad you are back vlogging!
Thank you for posting this! I was thinking of joining this and now I'm excited to be :)
Nice! always liked aircrafts.
How is the Job offers there in BC?
I know how much you love airplanes, so aircraft maintenance is an ideal career for you. Good luck po.
nice to see your vlog again Poul.You look different now.
no problem sir. thanks for watching as always!
thanks a lot for this video! its been very helpful and helped calm my nerves a bit. I start the AME program in less than 2 weeks and have been going crazy trying to figure out what I should be most focused on study wise before classes start. all BCIT told me was to have my textbooks by first day of class and to show up at 8am >.<
I know I should expect a fair amount of math in the overall program but I was wondering how focussed they were going to be on it in level one? I'm super excited about the course overall but it takes me a little bit to catch on to the math concepts
+Charlene Shonhiwa i know the feeling! Glad to have help you out. Level 1 was interesting. It touches all the aspects of level 2-7. Kinda like intro to everything. I enjoyed theory of flight for level 1. :) not much math dont worry! Level 4 though is a differnt story. But you can do it! Good luck!
Nice glimpse into your life in Canada Poul, thanks
No problem po! Hope you like it!
Happy to see you back with another videos ☺👍👏
If you ever go to Philippines or South Korea again you should try Asiana Airlines it's the best airline I've ever been on
more kinds of videos like this Poul and like the old times the vlogs, the flights and etc. i miss those kinds of vids. BTW kudos to your vids mr Pinoytravel.
yeah this is good stuff :)
Really looking forward to join you guys. Process things
Oh my! I have a passing interest in aviation and saw your travel vlogs years back. You're walking the path i've envisioned. Am a pinoy here in cavite and i'm planning to study in algonquin (ontario) on a student permit next year (will be 36y.o. tho.) Just following my dreams with hard work and perseverance. what do you think of algonquin bro? it's a 2 year program .
Hey, to be honest, i haven't heard of that school yet. But any school in Canada is of highest standard. You would be fine. Good luck!
Hey OwynBandSoLong, I have tons of friends that go to Algonquin College (I'm from Ontario) and they love it. Did you finally decide to go there?
Great vid. Three questions:
1.On course completion, how easy or hard is getting an apprenticeship as an international student?
2. What organizations accept apprentices?
3. is it possible for an international student to obtain a canadian AME?
Great video ! By the way, is it difficult to find an aircraft maintenance job for international student in Canada ? I heard that we need to be intern for 18 months after graduated to be eligible for license exam, isn't it?
Wow! You remind me of me in the past. I moved to Vancouver when i was 16, went back to PI after 3 yrs. to visit and i also went to BCIT and took AME. The BCIT campus was by the river at the south terminal and very close to the runway. Unfortunately when i graduated the job availability is very limited, this is back in 1992. I am a registered nurse now in California.... looking at your video gives me the creeps because it is like watching someone in my previous life. Oh by the way i even visited the Boeing factory in Everett when i was in school..... weird. Now lets see if you will become a nurse in the future.
+Peter Sernal wow! That's unheard of! We never knkw right. Although i dont really see myself as a medical type of person. I am afraid of blood. Hehe. Thank you for watching my video sir!
So are you done now? Have you started working? I quite curious of the outcome. Have you heard of other colleges or institutions that do things differently?
I'm Presently on a 2yrs Abridged AVIONICS course in NIGERIAN COLLEGE OF AVIATION TECHNOLOGY..
I will looooove to go to BCIT for my ratings and my CPL.. The GOAL is to be a Pilot-Engr.
Cool video bro. Thanks for sharing. It makes me want to go back to college and finish my BS AMT Course. :)
goodluck! :)
3rd! Yey! Hey! Keep making this vlog ilove it! Please post a video twice a week please! Love from the Philippines!
+Vincent Rock I mean 4th!
Hi I am contemplating between studying Avionics or Electronics engineering, as my motivation for going back to school is basically to learn electronics and automation design. Would you confirm that the avionics stream exposes students to design of electronic circuits
How are you doing now? I’m about halfway done your program. You find a career after where you working now? They don’t have levels anymore sadly. There’s so many students in the program like 36ppl per class, and I’m im class 393. There’s like 5 other class groups. So it’s all not in order. We taking electrical as level one and stuff. So gets crazy
I wish I can do your type of videos . But I have no friends in the campus that actually want to chill with me and get to know me we didn’t get to choose classes eveńaqy with the intense studying and other classmates sort of compet for the best great haha
I love your vlog !!!! I hope you will be keep making these vlogsss !!
Hlo sir, I am going to pursue this career next year and I want to ask u that is there time left for working job during this coarse
Can you share us the process of getting into BCIT :( i want to study there too
Hey man! Love the video! Just a couple questions if you don’t mind answering them. Please and thank you.
Did you ever go into industry as an AME? If so what was that experience like?what should the common trade school graduate of an M program expect?
I want to get into aviation, I’ve been applying for aircraft mechanic apprenticeships. But many of them require experience or a a&p license. Which I’m confused about, because it’s an entry level/apprentice beginner role, how would I already have experience or my a&p license? The process is annoying, I might just give up on applying at this point.
So do you have a 4 year degree? I wanna go back to school for aircraft maintenance also but I worry about getting a job with no experience. I might just go for a 4 year degree.
+VWGTI it's only a year and a half boss with no breaks in between.
Poul Go So have u found a job yet?
Bro you became an airline pilot today proud of u bro😢👏
Hey nice video!I just wanted to ask can a person with mild colourblindness do this ? As it is a straight washout for pilots i m just passionate about aviation so much but colourblindness became a hurdle so looking for this
What kind of hours do you have? (For example at my school we’re 8-3 every day)
Hi, Paul Go! Your videos are very helpful and interesting! They are about how real life goes in aviation. Thank a lot! Please, tell me, what can an individual do for apllying this programm, if I am not a Canadian national, how many steps to take and how much does it cost? I have an extensive background in aviation, I am an active ATCO in Ukraine, have a masters degree in aviation. But i want to move further... could you give me some advice, please? Thanks for reading! Good luck to everybody!
Just keep mAking vlogs Ading poul i cant wait to see your next vlog.
Have a question pls, since the program is 18 motnhs, and 48 months needed to get the license and do the exam, can someone do the training and exam out side Canada after finishing the 18 months at BCIT ?
does color blindness affect being an aircraft mechanic?
I came across this course and the college while browsing for AME course . Am really interested to pursue the course. I am sure by now you have graduated. How are the career options after you graduate??? Will appreciate if you can provide some information here as I am interested for this course.
dude this is awesome. im doing ame @ centennial college at ontario. we do have beech 18, king air, 3 pipers (seminole, apache, aztec), bell 206, bell 47, cessna 182, two 150, 172. wish we have a bigger one.
+Angelo D pretty similar to what we have here except we have that old musty 737
yea but we only have the engine of it. lol. anyways. are you done school this year? im planning to move there this august. because jazz keeps on hiring apprentices
@@angelod6207 Hey i am planning to do ame course next year, can you please suggest me which is the best college there? My preferences are centennial, fanshawe, confederation and BCIT. Can you please suggest me thee better one.
I want to learn AME,but someone says that it is hard to find a job, what do you think?
tiger wang it is quiote difficult especially when you stay in the city. But if you have passion for it, then go for it.
tiger wang vey hard
Hey Poul! I'm a susbscriber of yours and I've always been amused by aviation. I am also from the Philippines and I came to Canada in 2011. I am now 33yo and I am planning to pursue my dream to become an AME or fly a plane. I am kinda hesitant to do it just because of the things that I've been hearing and was told that it would be too late for me because I am old, old in the sense that I would have to start all over again as I didn't have any background in engineering(I'm a BSCS grad). Would you be able to tell if it would still be worth it for me to pursue a career in aviation? watcha think? Thanks and more power to your channel!
+Karl Aber hi Karl! Thanks for the message! Tell you something, during my time in BCIT, i've had met students who are at least 35 years old. Actually, had a classmate who's already 40 years. Age doesn't really matter as long as you can prove yourself in the industry. As per flying, i have a friend at my flight school who's doing Ppl and wants to pursue a career as a commercial pilot. He already has a family and he said he's at least 20 years older than me :) just be yourself and with aviation, passion is very important
Bro I got some questions for you ? When you learn each module do they mix more than one module per week or they mix it up ? Cuz where I'm at they mix more than 3 modules a week it's a little excessive to retain all the info and then jump to something else and then when exam time comes ... Your all messed up ? Thanks in advance !
Hey bruh thanks for this vlog.I too want to join this AME program . What is the job prospective after graduation
Just wondering. Did you take the avionics technology program first then the AME after?
+Migz Lorenzo i took AME M. I only took 1 program
Oh cool!. Did you get a job as an AME right after grad?
Hi Buddy, would you please explain the difference between Aircraft Maintenance Engineer Category 'M' (Maintenance)和Aircraft Maintenance Engineer Category ‘E’ (Electronics)? Are they hard to study？I‘ve heard that Aircraft Maintenance Engineer Category 'M' (Maintenance) is too hard to graduate, is that true? What's your feeling about this? Thank you in advance and looking forward to your more videos!
How is the career outlook right out of school here for this trade in Vancouver ? I am looking into it but hear moving provinces will be needed to find employment.
Hi kuya poul!!! Dati pa po ako nanonood ng mga flight vlogs mo hanggang ngayon pinapanood ko parin mga vlogs mo and nakaka motivate lalong lalo na para sakin dahil gusto ko po maging isang aircraft maintenance. Ano po ba ang mabibigay niyong advice kase gusto kong kunin sa college is BS in aircraft maintenance. Ask lang po sana ako ng advice :))
Hey Poul nice video, i got a question, would it be too late to start flying at 20 years old?? because the city of New Plymouth in New Zealand doesn't have a flight school anymore.. so the only way to learn how to fly is by moving to a different city, all im saying is that is beginning at 20 years to old?
Aotearoa AC7 Official thanks man. Age is no factor, well, at least for me. I started when i was 22, so there's that. You should be fine. I know people who started at the age of 25.
Hai poul Go, Can you share the details of the aircraft technician course and best college in canada , because my son planning to join this course
Hi. I Luke you carrer, but, ¿where is that place ? And, study that Career is expensive ??
Paul! Really like ur Vlog.Have been watching ur vid..been a while.kinda like BCIT. Can u tell me more about school fees, entry requirements for international students,wanna study AME "M".i went through school website but didn't get it very well.Thanks.
Hey, firstly, where are you from? For international students, they pay a premium for tuition. I think 1.5 times more than the normal tution costs. Also, if coming from a non-engish country, you have to pass an English 12 course which I actually did even though i'm not really an intl student. I heard BCIT needs a copy of all legal documents that you are an international student of Canada. That's all i know really. Hope that helps!
bro um also interested to get admission in BCIT....kindly inform me the overall cost..um international student...whats the tution cost for nationals?
+Sajjad Khan roughly 11k for permanent residents of canada or if you're canadian
+Poul Go (Pinoy Travel) Life as a BCIT student is easier than a UST student. Also studying at BCIT is more enjoyable than studying at UST.
so is it double for international students??
its very helpful thankyou.... and can you please give information about the study materials ....what do we have to study
jeppesen aircraft maintenance books bro. they are super helpful
Is it a better Institute than St. Clair College at Windsor and Seneca College at Toronto?
Please reply soon.
Great Video. I am a junior in high school and am looking at becoming a aviation mechanic. Would you recommend the job and can you give me any tips on what I need to know or do and if I should tour and job shadow a aviation mechanic?
+Ryan World War II History Buff Guy 582 if you live in Vancouver, mechanic jobs here are scarce. You have to move up north to yukon or elsewhere. But if it's your passion. You will find a job one way or another. 👌🏻
Poul Go Ok thanks
I have some questions?
1. Is it possible to get a jo with 200 flight hours? (Maybe in BC)
2. If not then what else do you suggest me? because its really expensive.
3. After CPL i might wanna get CFI license. Where would you suggest?
Please can anyone help me to answer these questions???
God damn your school is nice, my school has a good amount of planes but no where near airworthy hell one of our planes is just a frame and know one knows what its for
Did you have to take permission from BCIT to film the VLOG?
