“As a graduate of Sheffield School of Aeronautics I am a firm believer that I received the most thorough and well thought out aircraft dispatcher training available. I owe my position in the industry to Sheffield School of Aeronautics.” BF
Sidebar BF“I entered my profession, with more knowledge and information than dispatchers who have been practicing their craft for more than ten years. Not only has Sheffield provided a top notch education, but they have also instilled in me the confidence to succeed.” A.Z.
Sidebar AZ – Student Testimonial“My experience at Sheffield and my exposure to other aircraft dispatchers that did not go to Sheffield has resulted in an awareness of the superior depth and quality of the training provided by the Sheffield instructors.” CD
Sidebar CDGood afternoon Eric, I wanted to reach out to let you know that training at (airline) is in full swing and I couldn’t be happier that I chose Sheffield. My classmates, while very smart, definitely had subpar training and that has been very evident. I have waited to write a full scale review of the […]
Attending Sheffield School benefits airline new hires in preparation for airline training“I wanted to tell you I got the job offer from Expressjet, and start next month! I think a couple others from class were hired as well. It just shows the Sheffield reputation when I see graduates from other schools complaining that they can’t get an interview – I wasn’t even back home to Minneapolis […]
Dan Gustafson“now that I’ve been in an indoctrination class with students from other schools, I know I made the right choice with Sheffield.” Kindest regards, A.R.
All schools are created equal?! yeah…sure ;)“These men represented the highest caliber of professionalism and integrity. The education I received from these gentleman has afforded me to be gainfully employed while having the opportunity to use the education received, all over this country, and more than a few others.” WG
sidebar wg“Being that half my new hire class dropped out over the course of training, I can confidently say that Sheffield helped to prepare me for the real world.”
GT – abridged testimonial – school selection matters“While touring my company’s dispatch department before I had my license our OCC manager pointed out that 7 of the 10 dispatchers on shift had come from Sheffield. The overall consensus was that Sheffield grads were able to hit the ground running as they were better prepared.” K.O.
Sidebar K.O.“Going to Sheffield prepared me for the real world challenges of Aircraft Dispatching. I certainly believe that the method Sheffield used is one not only for success in a real world career, but also one that prepares students to correctly dispatch aircraft.” T.Z.
Sidebar TZ“After receiving my certificate, I joined a class of 4 experienced dispatchers for Part 121 initial training. Without experience, my preparation at Sheffield enabled me to become active at the same time after the initial training.” PR
PR“Their reputation of excellence amongst the industry is second to none. Sheffield School of Aeronautics should be seen as the standard of how it can be done and how it should be done. I was hired at a major airline with no dispatch experience.” A.Z.
Sidebar AZ“I am so glad they are like this because it made me a better dispatcher and I really appreciate their high standards. I would highly recommend Sheffield to anyone who is willing to study hard and is serious about obtaining a Dispatcher Certificate.” MC
MC“This was an amazing class! Always interesting! It was like drinking from a fire hose, but I have never enjoyed a course more than this one. Thank you for a great 5 weeks & EWINS!” R.S.
R.S. Testimonial – 5-weeks & EWINS“This school came highly recommended by multiple past students and EVEN OTHERS FROM OTHER SCHOOLS. Reputation is fantastic from multiple companies that I have worked for.”

Jobs in the Aviation Industry
Last month, Sheffield School of Aeronautics discussed the increased demand for personnel in the aviation industry. Although the jobs in aviation post focused on the need for more pilots, additional reports say that it is not just pilots who are in high demand; airlines are desperate for cabin crew, flight controllers, and flight dispatchers as well.
Every seven years, Boeing releases a study that they conduct surrounding the amount of jobs in the aviation industry and the demand. According to the most recent study released by Boeing, the forecast is dismal for airlines because almost every job in the aviation industry will be low staffed if the current trend continues. What may be the bright side of the coming aviation personnel surge is that it will be a professional’s job market. Job seekers in the aviation industry will have more of a choice and ultimately the power to negotiate their placement and pay.
Aviation giants like United Airlines, Delta Airlines, American Airlines, and Southwest Airlines have partnered with flight dispatcher schools like Sheffield School of Aeronautics to entice more applicants to train to meet the coming need to fill flight dispatcher jobs.
Boeing predicts that airlines will need 617,00 pilots, 679,000 technicians, and 814,000 cabin crew over the next 20 years. Technicians are job titles that include engineers and flight dispatchers.
It has never been a better time to break into an industry as it is now for anyone who is interested in aviation. Sheffield recommends that those who are on the fence about joining the aviation industry train as a flight dispatcher now, gain experience, and then take advantage of the growing job market in the years to come to figure out a more permanent career placement in aviation.
