Continental Aerospace Technologies™ has released its schedule for its 2026 Factory Training Academy. Courses will be hosted at its manufacturing facilities in Mobile, Alabama, and St. Egidien, Germany. This curriculum provides aircraft owners, operators, and maintenance professionals with a comprehensive understanding of Continental® engines through factory-led instruction.
Courses for AvGas and Jet-A piston engines blend classroom learning with real-world engine experience, covering topics such as engine design, system components, operational parameters, and maintenance practices in accordance with Continental’s maintenance manuals. Participants work directly with Continental’s experts to gain practical skills in engine theory, troubleshooting, diagnostics, and performance optimisation. Courses are available and tailored to either Continental® AvGas or Jet-A piston engines and include two progressive levels.
Every Continental® Academy course reinforces the company’s longstanding commitment to safety and technical excellence. Each session is designed to build confidence through structured, in-depth instruction, ensuring technicians understand not only how to maintain Continental® engines but also why each process matters. Expanding beyond its own manufacturing facilities, Continental also offers on-site training for maintenance providers, flight schools, and operators seeking to qualify multiple technicians through a single, coordinated program.
“Our Factory Training Academy reflects our commitment to advancing maintenance quality, safety, and customer success,” said Oliver Leber, Vice President of Global Sales Support & Applications Engineering. “By offering immersive, hands-on training opportunities, we equip aviation professionals with the knowledge and confidence needed to maintain Continental engines to the highest standard.”
