What it means to be SavvyCertified
SavvyCertified mechanics have completed our free, 8-hour, FAA-accepted training course focused on modern, data-driven aircraft maintenance. They are trained in:
✔ FAA regulations relevant to IA maintenance
✔ Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM)
✔ Evidence-based troubleshooting
✔ Minimally invasive cylinder repair
✔ Borescope inspection techniques
✔ Engine monitor data analysis
✔ Real-world diagnostic case studies
This course is designed primarily for A&P mechanics with Inspection Authorization (IA) privileges who need 8 hours of certified annual training to maintain their IA, but
it’s open to anyone who wants to learn more about aviation maintenance.
How to access the FREE course:
-
- Click the button below or visit certified.savvyaviation.org
- Create an account in the TalentLMS system
- Enter a mechanic certificate number if applicable (non-mechanics may enter any number)
BUILDING A STRONGER FUTURE FOR GA MAINTENANCE
Under the banner Savvy for Shops, we’re launching two other programs to facilitate peer-to-peer collaboration among GA mechanics and shops and provide expert advice, troubleshooting assistance, and second opinions by GA’s top subject matter specialists.
Modeled after the private forum Savvy’s IAs have used internally for more than a decade, this free online community is built specifically for GA mechanics.
ShopTalk is a place for mechanics only to:
-
Talk through tough maintenance problems
-
Share practical tech tips and real-world experience
-
Discuss parts sourcing, tools, and shop operations
-
Post job openings or career opportunities
-
Learn from other mechanics who work on airplanes every day
Savvy’s team of nearly 50 A&P/IAs, analysts, and specialists are active participants in the forum–sharing insights, answering questions, and learning alongside you. Past discussion threads are also searchable, so the historical information is available, and nothing gets lost.
To get access, just click the button below and confirm your AMT status.
If you already have a Savvy account, once you request access, you’ll be able to access ShopTalk immediately at no cost. If you don’t have an account yet, the system will lead you through setting one up for free, and it only takes about 15 seconds.
Coming Soon!
Modeled after our SavvyQA plan for aircraft owners, this affordable annual plan for shops will provide unlimited access to Savvy’s renowned team of 40+ veteran IAs, analysts and subject matter specialists, who will provide expert advice, troubleshooting and second opinions. From analysis of engine monitor data, borescope images, oil reports and oil filter debris to help sourcing hard-to-find parts and creating troubleshooting plans, shops and mechanics can count on Savvy to help with their thorniest maintenance problems.
