Sidebar K.O.“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 CD“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“Sheffield School of Aeronautics is known worldwide for its quality training and has been recommended to me by our national airline Swiss International Airlines. Whenever I mention the name ‘Sheffield’ it rings a bell in people’s ears.” IW
IWGood 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“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.

I’ve noticed many schools offer no job location assistance or claim to, but many graduates complain that their school provides little actual assistance. Do you offer anything better?
Sheffield was the first school to offer our graduates job assistance.
As far as job placement goes, we assist our students/graduates by allowing them access to our “jobs” page with a unique User ID and password. This allows our students and graduates to see some of the airlines who are hiring dispatchers. Students can also print out or view an online list of approximately 150 airlines with e-mail and web links. We also upload résumés of graduates, if requested, onto another password-protected page for hiring managers to view and print. The following is an email from a graduate of another school seeking job assistance:

Hello, my name is xxx xxxxx. I am a graduate of the dispatcher program in (Texas). Roughly 2 months ago. I was wondering if I could accumulate a username and password so I could get some jobs. My school isn’t very good at that sort of thing I guess. I keep on them but they seem to be to (sic) busy and they never update their job listings page. The last update was back in January. Please my wife and I need some work. I was in the (military) doing flight dispatch and went to get my FAA certification after that and now I just want to work. Thank You!
xxxxxx xxxxx
Note – Unfortunately for this person, only Sheffield graduates and students receive job assistance from Sheffield.
Our graduates typically send us more positive notes – even during trying times:

Hey Eric,
How are things going down in Florida? Hope business is going well for you down there. Just wanted to let you know that I am still at xxxxx xxxxx. I ended up getting furloughed last September, but I was called back shortly after that…..prior to other people who had more seniority than me!! Now a year later I am a Chief Dispatcher. Just wanted to tell you that attending Sheffield has helped with my career as a dispatcher. The training I rec’d with you was excellent and every day that I work with graduates of other schools I am reminded about the reasons why I chose Sheffield. I don’t know if you are doing the teaching anymore, but I just wanted to say that you were a great instructor and I am glad to have been there when you taught a class.
Thanks again,
xxxx xxxxxxxx
Chief Dispatcher
