            Frequently asked questions

            Aviation Training involves different courses, training programmes, and apprenticeships related to the aviation sector. The areas include commercial pilot licence, ground staff and cabin crew training, airport management, aviation hospitality, aviation safety and security, and more. The most sought-after courses are the ones by Civil Aviation Authority regulators as they are designed considering the UK and EASA standards.

            The Aviation Training duration varies for different courses ranging from obtaining a commercial pilot licence to aviation safety and other courses. The training time can range between 2-7 months and more and also depends on the assessment tests and other factors that are crucial for getting qualified or obtaining a certification to work in the aviation sector. In the case of Cabin Crew, you have to go through pre-employment training for Cabin Crew to secure employment.

            The training can be tough for certain roles like flying, safety and risk management and airport and air traffic services. Aviation Training opportunities are offered to those candidates that have the ability to cope with challenging and difficult situations. There are different stages of the courses that you have to learn and clear before getting the certification.

            The cost for different Aviation Training programmes and courses varies depending on the institute, duration and other factors. Flying and tailored training can cost more than the areas like cabin crew training. To get an average estimation of cost for a course, you can compare prices by top training institutes.

            Some of the Aviation Training careers include flight training support administrators, flight instructors, training and planning managers, cabin crew trainers and technical trainers.

You must have passed the Pilot Aptitude Test and the EASA/CAA/FAA Class 1 medical exam.

You should have a commercial pilot license, ATP, ASEL, or AMEL, with a proper instrument rating. And you should be medically fit with a valid CAA/EASA/FAA Class 3 medical certificate or better.
             

            Although no specific degree is required for getting into an aviation training career (flight instructor), having a Bachelor's degree in aviation is usually the preferred degree of higher education for pilots and can give you the edge as an instructor. While some higher education institutions offer this degree as part of a Bachelor of Science program, others offer it as part of a Bachelor of Arts program.   
             

            Almost all countries have some sort of flight training school, but some of the top countries with regard to aviation training are the US, the UK, Australia, Greece, and the Philippines.
             

            The Philippines is one the most affordable countries for pilot training and obtaining a pilot's license. The course cost in the Philippines can vary between approximately ten thousand US dollars to fifteen thousand US dollars; this is compared to Nigeria and Poland, which are comparatively more expensive.
