Training Courses
Structured training programs to prepare you for your pilot assessment — organised by assessment test, by airline selection process, and by study subject. Each course combines lessons with hands-on practice exercises.
Assessment preparation
7Master the aptitude tests themselves — many airlines and academies share these.
Understanding Pilot Aptitude Tests
What does each test actually measure? How does the very same skill show up in the cockpit? A guide to every intellectual and neuro-sensomotoric skill test an airline puts you through during a pilot selection process, and why a selection board cares.
Understanding the Psychological Evaluation
Almost every pilot selection ends with a psychologist. This course walks through the interview and personality-assessment stage: your motivation, your life story, the competencies being scored and the questionnaire debrief — and shows how to prepare with self-knowledge instead of a script.
ADAPT Test Preparation
Prepare for the ADAPT pilot aptitude test from Symbiotics — the computer-based aptitude stage in CAE's cadet programmes for IndiGo, easyJet and Volotea, and in several academies' own admissions.
Aon (cut-e) Test Preparation
Prepare for the Aon (formerly cut-e) online assessment used by Ryanair, Delta, FTEJerez, Skyborne and many other airlines and academies. Covers the reasoning, spatial, multitasking and personality modules with a matched practice plan.
COMPASS Test Preparation
Prepare for the COMPASS pilot aptitude test used by Transavia, Brussels Airlines (via Skywings), Aegean, Etihad, EPST and several flight academies. Covers the cognitive, psychomotor and personality components with a matched practice plan.
