The Aircraft Maintenance Companies are continuously recruiting new aircraft technicians, both SNCO and civilian, but it has been difficult to recruit officers.
This study examines the factors that may underlie the choice of education after military service.
The result shows that the respondents had SNCO’s as positive role models, while the officers more often were seen as negative role models. The respondents who chose civil engineering programs answered that they have high technical self-efficacy and that the psychological cost is low. Higher salary on the civilan market can be one of the reasons that the respondents doesn´t chose a military career. (Less)
