Course Overview:
The Academics of Flight International course is designed to meet the ever-growing needs of the aviation industry. Our program trains your employees at your location, allowing them to remain on duty and minimizing your costs. In many instances, the cost savings compared to sending individuals for training are equivalent to the total cost of the program.
Program Details:
In Person Training: Academics of Flight sends an instructor to the airline's location for a 3-4 day classroom session per week. The candidates will then come to our facility in New York or Miami for a two-week period for testing and certification.
Recurrent Training: A recurrent training program for those who have been previously certificated, consisting of 25 hours and may be extended for individuals who have been away from the field for a period of time.
Online Program:
Through 35 years of teaching the FAA-approved Aircraft Dispatcher program with a worldwide clientele, both airlines and individuals, Academics of Flight has witnessed many instances where the “online training” method is not the correct approach for obtaining the certificate for many individuals, especially those with no aviation experience.
Eligibility Requirements:
