{"abstract":"This study examines the effectiveness of simulator-based training in the Aircraft Maintenance Technology (AMT) program at Indiana Aerospace University (IAU) during the Academic Year 2023–2024. As the aviation industry rapidly evolves, maintenance training programs must adapt to equip students with both foundational and advanced skills. Simulator-based instruction offers immersive, hands-on experiences in controlled environments that mirror real-world aircraft maintenance tasks. Guided by Experiential Learning Theory, Cognitive Load Theory, and Situated Learning Theory, this study investigates how simulation impacts curriculum integration, training quality, and skill development among AMT students. A descriptive quantitative research design was employed, with data collected from 50 AMT students across year levels. Respondents were divided into two groups—those trained primarily through traditional classroom instruction and those trained via simulators. Data were gathered using a self-constructed Likert-scale questionnaire focusing on three main areas: curriculum integration, training effectiveness, and skill development. Statistical analysis revealed that simulator-based training was perceived as “Highly Effective” to “Very Effective” across all measured aspects. Notably, students reported improved skill retention, increased confidence, enhanced understanding of complex systems, and better preparation for industry expectations. The findings strongly support the incorporation of simulator-based training as a core component of AMT education. It bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, reduces operational risks, and improves overall student competency. The study recommends increasing institutional investment in simulation technology, aligning training with industry standards, and continuously evaluating program effectiveness. These initiatives are essential not only for enhancing educational outcomes at IAU but also for shaping the future of aviation maintenance education across the Philippines and beyond.","abstract_source":"original","authors":["Eugene Toring","Kimberly Toring","Marc Jasper Lapidario","Carlo Apolo","Jason Kyle Cabibil","Guy Jesse Castanares","Peter Angelo Dayot","Vince Leo Gilig","Jhea Manacap","Wee Cheen Keegan Ong","Earl Vince Urbiztondo","Jhoselle Tus"],"date":"2025-05-29","doi":"10.70838/jasaam.010208","id":5353,"issue":2,"journal":{"issn":"3062-4460","name":"Journal of Advanced Studies in Aviation, Aerospace, and Management"},"pdf_sha256":"30d5eae6f7181d11e9803d72489450b5276dd2f005f9d5286b33ebe1a1f163aa","schema":"scimatic-article/1","title":"Assessing the Effectiveness of Simulator-Based Training in Aircraft Maintenance Technology Program","volume":1}
