Every course on this page is open to Plus Two students from any stream. Your stream does not limit you. Pick by what you enjoy doing at work.
Science
Science students can join any of these courses. If you like systems, processes and safety rules, look at Ground Handling or the Diploma in Airport Management.
Commerce
Commerce students often feel at home with fares, billing and bookings, so Airline Ticketing and Tourism Management are natural fits. Read our guide to courses after Plus Two commerce in Kerala.

What parents ask
Where is the campus, and is it safe?
The academy is at CA Buildings, Ramankutty Achan Road, near the South Railway Over Bridge in Ernakulam South, Kochi, close to Ernakulam South railway station. Classes run on a fixed timetable with faculty on site through the day, and parents can contact us any time for an update on attendance and progress. Campus visits are welcome, Monday to Friday 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM and Saturday 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM.
What are the class timings?
Classes follow a fixed timetable at the Ernakulam South academy. Ask our counsellor for the current batch timetable and the next start date.
How much are the fees, and is EMI available?
Fees are explained before you join and include GST: ₹21,240–₹33,040 for 3-month certificates, from ₹64,900 for 6-month diplomas and from ₹1,06,200 for 1-year diplomas. EMI is available, with no hidden charges. See the fees page.
What does placement assistance mean?
It means we help your child prepare for and reach employers: CV preparation, mock interviews, grooming and personality development, industry talks, industrial visits and employer referrals. It is not a promise of a job. Employers run their own selection.
Should my child do a diploma or a degree?
A diploma or certificate is not a degree. It is a shorter, job-focused course. Some students take a diploma instead of a degree so they can start work sooner. Others plan a degree as well, and graduates can later join our PG or Executive Diploma. Talk to our counsellor about what fits your family's plans.
