Testimonials
“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“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 BF“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.” I have received 4 (job) offers…many of the interviews I have gotten have been because of my “pedigree”…going to Sheffield. I am amazed at the respect your school has….I am honored to be a graduate. Thank you for all the work you ..!”

GT – abridged testimonial – school selection matters“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
PRGood 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 […]

Aircraft Dispatcher Hubs Across the World
One of the requirements of accepting an aircraft dispatcher job is moving to the airline’s headquarters. Each airline in the world has its own aircraft dispatcher hub, a city that airline calls home and sets up headquarters.
Though there are many aircraft dispatcher hubs that airlines use as main points in flights paths, there is only one airline hub that is also named headquarters. The headquarters is where you will be performing your duties outlined when you accepted your aircraft dispatcher job.
Delta Airlines – Hartsfield-Jackson Airport in Atlanta, Georgia
American Airlines – Dallas Fort Worth Airport in Dallas, Texas
United Airlines – O’Hare Airport in Chicago, Illinois
Southwest Airlines – Dallas Love Field Airport in Dallas, Texas
Air France – Tremblay-en-France, France
British Airways – Harmondsworth, United Kingdom
South African Airways – Johannesburg, South Africa
Emirates Airlines – Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Singapore Airlines – Singapore, Malaysia
Turkish Airlines – Instanbul, Turkey
Though aircraft dispatcher jobs offer to new graduates will most likely not be to any of the major airlines, if you accept a job from a major airline you will have to move to the airline’s headquarters.
Aircraft dispatcher jobs require access to the airline’s systems, which requires going to the specific location. Having multiple location all over the world would just not make sense logistically, so this is not going to change any time soon.
The good news is that, unless you make the decision, you will probably never have to move again. Job security in the aviation industry is strong, and the demand for aircraft dispatchers will be increasing over the next few years, so stability and security will be easy to come by.
