Flight Instructor Refresher Course

The objective of the Flight Instructor Refresher Course is to help certified flight instructors renew their knowledge and skills to meet the requirements for flight instructor recertification. This course ensures that instructors stay current with the latest aviation standards, regulations, and instructional techniques.

One example of scenario for Taking the Flight Instructor Refresher Course:

Q: Why would I need to take a Flight Instructor Refresher Course?

A: Certification Renewal Requirement

For example: Meet Captain Alex. He has been a dedicated flight instructor for over a decade. As the expiration date of his Certified Flight Instructor (CFI) certificate approaches, Alex knows he must renew his certification to continue his beloved profession. Regulatory bodies such as the DGCA require flight instructors to renew their certification periodically every 24 months. A refresher course is necessary to meet these regulatory requirements, ensuring that Alex remains compliant and authorized to teach.
