ABSTRACT

— This study aimed to assess the level of effectiveness of Aeronautical Engineering faculty in their related field of teaching in WCC Aeronautical and Technological College in Binalonan Campus. The study made use of a descriptive research design to establish the competencies of the teaching program. To answer the question, the researcher adopted a survey questionnaire from the manuals of Employment and Training Administration of Aeronautics of the United States of America (ETAAU). The study focused on the five areas of effectiveness such as Aerospace Fundamentals, Design and Development, Product and Parts Manufacturing, Project Management and Quality Assurance, Aviation Maintenance. Results showed that the Aero Engineering faculty of WCC Aviation and Technological College are highly effective. The study further showed the common problems encountered in the training. Encompass attributes such as the ability to recognize and manage human performance limitations, make sound decisions, communicate effectively, perform effectively as a team, manage stress and fatigue, and maintain situational awareness. Aside from non-technical skills, a high level of expertise is needed to make sure that aircraft are serviced to rigorous quality and safety standards, the skills pertained to in this area are called teaching skills. The type of skills includes instructing subject major, repairing, and maintenance of all types of aircraft in aeronautical field. The world is in a process of continuous change, innovations in Information Communications Technology (ICT) are constantly advancing and although companies have made huge progress, one must always remain at the forefront.
