Our ICAO Pilot Training Program is designed to guide aspiring aviators from zero flying experience (ab initio) to becoming fully qualified commercial pilots in accordance with ICAO standards. Upon completing the program, you will be fully equipped to pursue a professional aviation career. Training is conducted at our certified facilities worldwide, with practical sessions performed at approved international airports.

The program curriculum is meticulously crafted to meet the rigorous requirements of ICAO pilot training while promoting both technical proficiency and personal growth. Developed with insights from industry leaders, the syllabus ensures trainees gain the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed for a successful career in aviation.

Students enrolled in the program will complete their entire ICAO training pathway at their designated training center. The journey begins with the Fundamentals of Aviation course, followed by earning the ICAO-approved Private Pilot License (PPL) and progressing through the Structured Hours Building (SHB) phase.
