GENERAL INFORMATION
Pre-Entry Level Training
Trainees can benefit from several Self-Assessments available on the AHTS Learner Portal, in order to check if they have the prerequisites to join a Type Rating course.
In case of low or average grade, it is recommended to join a Pre-Entry-level training to acquire the necessary level and thus perform the type rating course in the best conditions. The Bridge courses have different durations according to the topics, trainees’ background and goals for the planned conversion to type course.
These programs are valid for any aircraft, and can be customized for each customer. The PELT course is planned the week prior to the Type Rating course.
