Study to become a Cabin Crew Member

A qualification in aviation is your passport to success.  Get a start in this competitive industry with technical, health and safety, and risk management training

William Angliss Institute offers the Certificate III in Aviation (Cabin Crew) at its Melbourne Campus.  This is a 6-month course and students get to go on industry-based excursions and learning experiences, strengthening their employability with this industry-approved course.  

Applicants must note that Australian based airlines have a minimum height requirement of 160cm (without shoes) and require a reach of 212cm to be employed as a cabin crew/flight attendant. Students who do not meet these requirements should take into consideration that this will affect their employability as a cabin crew/flight attendant with an Australian airline. International airlines may have different requirements.

ADF Gap Year

The ADF Gap Year program provides an opportunity for young Australians, who have finished Year 12 (or equivalent) and are aged between 17 and 24, to experience military training and lifestyle whilst gaining new skills and pay over their Gap Year. The life skills and job training that students acquire during their Gap Year experience will be valuable regardless of what career they ultimately undertake. 

Gap Year opportunities are available in the Navy, Army, and Air Force. This is a useful link to browse - What is an ADF Gap Year?
