"SMAT" stands for "School of Missionary Aviation Technology." We provide mission-driven students with FAA-certified training in aircraft maintenance and flight. Our specialty is preparing people to serve the Lord in mission aviation.
What we offer at SMAT is a professional, certified curriculum in a warm and friendly atmosphere. We're a small school with small class sizes - so students have close relationships with instructors and other students. You will find that everyone at SMAT shares a common goal: To make an impact for God's Kingdom through aviation.
