CAET Certification Prep
Master Avionics.
Get Certified.
Scenario-based training with interactive simulations, spaced repetition flashcards, and practice exams — aligned to every CAET exam category. Available to technicians across all aviation sectors.
Why Ace Avionics
Built by Avionics Professionals. Aligned to the Standard.
Every module maps directly to the CAET certification requirements defined in ASTM F3245-25 — the same standard that Part 145 repair stations use to evaluate technician competency. This isn't generic online training. It's built by people who've worked the bench, written the standards, and know what the exam actually tests.
ASTM F3245-25 Aligned
Curriculum maps directly to the CAET certification standard — every objective, every assessment
Industry Experience
Designed by certified avionics professionals with real Part 145 shop floor experience
Part 145 Validated
Content tested against real maintenance scenarios — not textbook theory, actual shop work

Your Future
Two Paths Forward
The difference between walking into a shop with credentials and walking in without them.
With CAET Certification
- Walk into any shop with a recognized, industry-standard credential
- Command $10-20K higher salary than uncertified technicians
- Competitive edge — shops prioritize credentialed applicants
- Career acceleration — faster path to lead tech, inspector, or management
Without It
- Compete against certified techs for the same positions
- Explain your experience from scratch in every interview
- Slower advancement — watch certified techs get promoted first
- Lower pay ceiling without a recognized credential on your resume
