Red River College - Stevenson Campus
Aviation & Aerospace
Red River College - Stevenson Campus Aviation & Aerospace operates its
Aircraft Maintenance Engineer apprenticeship training program out of Hangar 4
here at Southport. The 2,200 square meter campus is well equipped with a wide
selection of training aircraft, including a Cessna Citation II jet, as well as repair
shops and classrooms.
Manitoba is home to the third-largest aerospace sector in Canada – and Red River
College’s Stevenson Aviation & Aerospace Campus is an active partner, training
its workforce to participate in all aspects of the aviation and aerospace sector.
Their graduates are found throughout the industry – overhauling aircraft engines, maintaining aircraft, building
components, or in management positions such as Directors of Maintenance and Quality Assurance.
This program is the only one of its kind in Canada, offering an apprenticeship learning atmosphere. Employers
send their employees to Southport from across Canada to learn the hands-on training they need to become
licensed Aircraft Maintenance Engineers (AMEs).
RRC Stevenson students take advantage of the Mynarksi House for accommodations, food services at Voyageur
Place and Central Plains RecPlex for recreation during their stay at Southport.
