About this school
Alabama Aviation College (a division of Snead State Community College) operates from the Frank McDaniel Aviation Building near Albertville Airport in Albertville, AL. Students train across two FAA Part 147 pathways — Airframe Technology and Power Plant Technology — both delivered as Associate in Applied Science (AAS) degrees that run roughly two years and one semester. Students completing the full A&P track also earn standalone certificates in Airframe Technology, Power Plant Technology, and Aircraft Structures, plus short-term certificates in General Aviation and Reciprocating Engines. A few things set this program apart. Snead State partners with the University of Alabama in Huntsville to give graduates a transfer pathway into a four-year aviation degree. The college also runs a dual-enrollment program at the Southern Museum of Flight in Birmingham, where eligible high school students start earning A&P credit before they finish high school — training on real aircraft and tools at the museum site. Twice a year the school offers an A&P Prep Course for military maintainers and civilian technicians who already meet FAA experience requirements via Form 8610-2 and need structured exam preparation before sitting for the General, Airframe, and Powerplant written and oral/practical exams.
