Part-147 Training, Evidenced End to End
A Part-147 approval is only as strong as the records behind it. Every candidate carries a trail of module examinations, practical assessments and type-course elements that has to stay accurate and retrievable long after they leave. Aviatize gives Maintenance Training Organisations one place to run the courses and hold the evidence.
In short
What does Aviatize do for part-147 mtos?
A Part-147 approval is only as strong as the records behind it. Every candidate carries a trail of module examinations, practical assessments and type-course elements that has to stay accurate and retrievable long after they leave. Aviatize gives Maintenance Training Organisations one place to run the courses and hold the evidence.

The Challenges You Face
Part-147 organisations carry the record-keeping load of a training provider and the scrutiny of a maintenance approval at the same time. Annex IV to Regulation (EU) No 1321/2014 sets out what has to be in place — and most of it is evidence that has to be produced on demand, years after the training happened.
Two Course Types, Two Evidence Trails
Basic training under Subpart C runs against the Part-66 knowledge modules with its own examinations and practical assessment. Aircraft type and task training under Subpart D splits into a theoretical element, a practical element and on-the-job training. The same candidate can sit in both, and each needs its own record.
Examination Integrity
147.A.135 puts the examination process itself under approval — who invigilates, how question papers are controlled, how results are recorded and how re-sits are handled. Spreadsheets and shared drives make that hard to demonstrate and easy to undermine.
Instructor, Examiner and Assessor Records
147.A.105 and 147.A.110 require documented experience and qualifications for instructors, examiners and assessors, plus updating training to keep them current. Where one person combines roles, the file has to show competence for each one separately.
Continued Validity and Findings
Your approval names the categories and aircraft types you may train. Continued validity under 147.A.155 depends on demonstrating compliance to the competent authority, and findings under 147.A.160 need tracked closure. A narrowed approval is a narrowed business.
How Aviatize Solves This
Course and record management for EASA Part-147 Maintenance Training Organisations. Structure basic courses against the Part-66 knowledge modules, run examination and practical-assessment records, keep instructor, examiner and assessor files current, and hold the evidence your competent authority asks for at every oversight visit.
Courses Structured to Your Approval
Aviatize's syllabus engine is configurable rather than fixed to pilot licences, so basic courses are structured against the Part-66 knowledge modules and type courses against their theoretical and practical elements — matching the scope your approval actually covers.
Examinations and Sittings on the Record
Schedule sittings, group candidates, record results per module and track re-sits as part of the candidate's file rather than alongside it. Hours planned, given and attended are recorded the same way, so instruction delivery is evidenced as well as claimed.
Staff Files That Stay Current
Hold instructor, examiner and assessor qualifications as documents with validity dates and expiry alerts, four-eyes approval on changes, and role-based access. Updating training is tracked against the person, not remembered by the quality manager.
One Candidate File, Enrolment to Certificate
Every module examination, practical assessment and type-course element sits under one candidate record. When a technician's licence application or a type endorsement is questioned years later, the evidence is retrievable rather than reconstructed.
Audits Planned, Findings Closed
Plan and schedule internal audits, work findings to closure on a shared board, and keep the digital audit trail your competent authority expects at each oversight visit — the same tooling European ATOs already use for national-authority oversight.
Built for Organisations Holding More Than One Approval
Many Part-147 organisations also hold an ATO, a Part-145 or a CAMO approval. Aviatize keeps courses, people, documents and audits in one system across them, so the maintenance-training side stops living in its own parallel set of files.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Aviatize was built for approved training organisations, and the engines a Part-147 MTO needs are the same ones: configurable course structures, examination and sitting records, document validity tracking, and audit management. Courses are configured to the categories and aircraft types your approval covers rather than shipped as a fixed template, so the system matches your exposition instead of the other way round.
Yes. Basic courses are structured against the Part-66 knowledge modules, and each candidate's examination sittings, results and re-sits are recorded against their file. Practical assessment is held the same way, so a candidate's basic training record shows both the knowledge and the practical side in one place.
Type courses are configured with their theoretical and practical elements kept as separate, linked evidence against the candidate and the aircraft type. That matters because the practical element is often delivered in a Part-145 maintenance environment under the MTO's control, and the record has to show both elements were completed to standard.
No. They share a number and regulate different systems. EASA Part-147 covers Maintenance Training Organisations feeding the Part-66 Aircraft Maintenance Licence under Annex IV to Regulation (EU) No 1321/2014. FAA Part 147 covers United States Aviation Maintenance Technician Schools whose graduates test for the FAA Airframe and Powerplant certificate. Neither approval confers the other system's credential.
Yes. Organisations that hold more than one approval run them in the same system, with courses, people, documents and audits kept together. Pilot training under Part-FCL and maintenance training under Part-147 have different course structures and different evidence, but they share instructors, facilities, documents and an audit programme — so keeping them in one platform removes the duplicate record-keeping.
