We monitor your individual progress to assist you with your goal of completing the course and attaining the qualification, licence, endorsement, and/or rating you are aiming to achieve.
One-to-one monitoring and feedback by our flight instructors is a vital part of our flight training. This occurs within classes, briefings, simulator lessons, and flight lessons.
Our staff may contact you to discuss your progress informally, or formally by appointment, as part of our general monitoring of your progress or to discuss issues specific to you. You are welcome to discuss your progress with our staff as required.
You are welcome to ask our flight instructors for a discussion about your progress in the course at any time.
Some government agencies require specific progress monitoring for specific types of students (see below). It is important that you notify us as soon as possible of any change of your personal contact details so these communications and official notices are properly delivered to you.
