Hi, my name is Joe and I'm an aviation maintenance technician for SkyWest Airlines.

I love working around planes; it's my dream job. There's nothing else really, I'd want to go to school for.

The hybrid program worked where I did my 13 months online and then after that I came to Tulsa, OK on ground for seven months to get my AMT diploma.

It was perfect for me because I couldn't get away, I couldn't do the whole program here. I had job offers even before I graduated. It prepared me for my dream career in aviation.

I loved going to Spartan. It helped me to be knowledgeable – how aircraft work, how to repair aircraft.

I'd recommend it to anybody.
