Qantas officially opened its Engineering Academy in Brisbane on January 20, 2025, and welcomed the first batch of 30 students.

The Qantas Group said the Academy will train the next generation of aircraft engineers through a training program developed by Qantas and Aviation Australia. The program is designed to increase the number of apprentices that can be trained each year to 150 students. 

The first batch of apprentices will have the opportunity to undertake simulated practical tasks in a controlled environment that mirrors working in a hangar, alongside their theory and classroom training. They will also learn through on-the-job training under the supervision of experienced Qantas engineers.
