Aerospace Education Catalogue

Overview

This site gathers, at a national level, the series of training courses, either full-time education, lifelong training or by apprenticeships, related to aeronautics and space and offered by organisations that agreed to be indexed in this catalogue.

It provides a regularly updated on-line reference tool, which can be accessed by any party with an interest in this sector: human resources managers, students, employees, universities, teachers, trainers and general public.

However, this site is primarily intended for students to help them to guide their studies, and for professionals to help them to deepen their knowledge or to target new competencies, by providing clear and complete information on the higher education offer of interest for the aeronautics and space sectors.

This inventory of trainings in the space field is also essential for:

  • universities, institute of higher education, training organizations, which can thus promote and optimize their training offer,
  • industry, research organisations and agencies in the aerospace sector to develop their continuing education plans based on the needs in skills development of their employees,
  • industry, research organisations and public bodies to enable them to express new needs in terms of training and to participate in its development,
  • finally, political and economic decision-makers to learn about the benefits of aerospace to society in general.

It also aims to provide tools for academic and professional stakeholders to stimulate, motivate and consolidate interest in aerospace science and technology among young people. By doing this, it contributes to the education of students, the know-how of manufacturers and expertise of researchers.

This aerospace training catalog created in 2015, replaced the www.formasupaeronautique.fr catalogue developed in the years 2007-2008 under the frame of an agreement between he GIFAS (the French aerospace industries association) and the French Ministries in charge of education and universities

In 2019 new criteria to identify the training courses like: type (distance learning, short courses), degree prepared, certification properties, skills, and targeted jobs, etc, are added. Also, the list of topics characterising the training courses have been redefined and updated.

On line registration of a training course -which does not yet appear on this site- is welcome: http://www.formations-superieures-aerospatiales.fr/en/inscription/
