Supervising an A&P Apprentice in California

Your shop can grow its own mechanics. Under 14 CFR 65.77, the supervised hours an apprentice logs under your certificated A&Ps count toward their mechanic certificate — no Part 147 school required. You document the training as it happens; when your apprentice is ready, FAA Form 8610-2 goes to the FSDO below — the local FAA office that verifies their supervised experience and authorizes them to take the mechanic tests.

Your shop doesn't need to be a Part 147 school to train an A&P. Under 14 CFR 65.77, the supervised hours an apprentice logs under your certificated mechanics count toward their certificate — hiring an apprentice is how a shop grows its own A&Ps.
