Aviation Events

Join any of our LIVE virtual events taking place in 2025 – and share the joy of working in aviation with your students. Anyone who’s worked in aviation will tell you – almost quite gushingly – how much they love it.

3 images showing firstly a female pilot on a zoom call talking to students, then a drawing by a student showing a plane flying against the sun with the words 'fly into the future' and lastly a lady presenting in class about her job in aviation.

The following are live, virtual events we organise, and teachers.. you can register for as many as you like. You can also use our platform (for free) to link up with our many specialist aviation workplace volunteers to create your own event.

There are eight more events planned, so they’ll be added here as soon as dates are confirmed.

Teachers

Get your children waxing lyrical about the aviation sector – the wealth of jobs is just incredible. 

From jobs at the airport (think Fire and Rescue, Aircraft Despatch, Check-in, Air Traffic Control and Engineering) to jobs in the office (Marketing, Travel Agents, Revenue Management, E-commerce, Sales, Legal etc) to jobs in the air (Flight Attendants, Air Ambulance, Pilots etc). And we haven’t even touched on training and flight instructors!

 

Other ways to get involved 

If you work in the aviation sector (or used to), your knowledge and expertise is invaluable in opening up this amazing sector to young people. We’d love to hear from you, whatever you role, your experience is unique and can make a real difference to young people.
