Civilian Career Paths

Career associations are editorial assessments of the cited evidence, not an official crosswalk unless the evidence explicitly says so. O*NET supplies civilian occupation information, not proof of a military match. Related experience does not confer civilian qualifications. Tasks and tools below describe civilian work, not military training.

Avionics Technicians

AH-64 electrical and avionics maintenance, diagnostic equipment repair, and aircraft maintenance records directly overlap with civilian avionics troubleshooting and repair.

How to prepare: Use the ASTM NCATT Aircraft Electronics Technician exam content to identify gaps and build a focused civilian avionics study plan.

What the civilian work involves
  • Test and troubleshoot instruments, components, and assemblies, using circuit testers, oscilloscopes, or voltmeters.
  • Adjust, repair, or replace malfunctioning components or assemblies, using hand tools or soldering irons.
  • Keep records of maintenance and repair work.

Training & Development

Choose credentials for your target role. COOL funding markers describe program listings, not a guarantee of eligibility or funding.

Getting Started

  • ASTM NCATT Aircraft Electronics Technician (AET)

    Document aircraft electronics knowledge for a civilian avionics technician transition.

    Eligibility and preparation: No mandatory prior credential, education, training, or experience is required to take the exam.
