Are you ready for an exciting future in aviation? CCBC offers one of the largest and most comprehensive Aviation Technology programs in the Mid-Atlantic region. We've been placing graduates in aviation internships and jobs with airlines, airports, aviation contractors, air traffic control facilities and other state and federal government agencies since 1974.

You'll learn from professionals who are active in their field as you train to be an airplane, helicopter or drone pilot, air traffic controller, airline manager or flight attendant. Many of our degrees and certificates include credentials from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). We are accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education and an active member of the University Aviation Association and the Association of Collegiate Training Institutions.

Online program options are available, giving you the flexibility to start your training on your schedule. Join our program to earn your degree or certificate in Aviation or to prepare for transfer to a four-year college or university. You can take one class at a time or enroll full time to earn your wings sooner.
