802.02: Aviation Time and Attendance Policy

Time and attendance rules are approved by the Federal Aviation Administration or this college.

TIME

A record of each student's time in attendance for each class will be maintained on a standard form (Phase Sheet). These forms will be maintained in a student file along with a summary form that will a indicate a student's time in attendance, class grade, and semester for each class taken in the program. These records will be maintained for inspection at the request of the FAA. The records will be maintained for a period of at least two years after the completion or separation from the program.

ATTENDANCE

Attendance for the AMT program is more restrictive than the college general attendance policy. Students are required to receive instruction for all related FAA materials in the approved curriculum. A maximum absence of 14 hours or 10 % ofthe approved 140 hours of curriculum time is allowed. All instructional material missed during the absence must be made up. Students exceeding the allowable absences will be required to withdraw or receive an "F" for the course. Attendance will be recorded each day on the Student Phase Sheet. All make-up of missed material will be properly documented on the back of the phase sheet. Students that are not engaged in the learning process, i.e. sleeping, playing games on a cell phone, reading non-class material, etc. will not be given attendance credit for the time they are not engaged.
