Flight Instructor

The Flight Instructor Certificate provides students with an opportunity to obtain the knowledge, expertise, and aeronautical proficiency necessary to meet the requirements for a commercial rating with an airplane or a helicopter category and a single-engine land class rating, and a flight instructor certificate with an airplane category rating and single-engine class rating.

Students are required to have proof of U.S. citizenship or TSA approval and have a valid second-class medical certificate to enroll in this program. A second application is required for admission to this program.

Students already holding the required pilot’s license and ratings may convert their experience through the college’s prior learning assessment process.

Students are expected to complete all flight course requirements in a single semester.  However, due to the special circumstances of Aviation flight training courses, aviation students requesting an Incomplete must contact the aviation operations chair to request the extension and complete all necessary paperwork prior to the end of the semester. Students needing an Incomplete in a flight course will have 12 calendar months, from the start date of the initial semester enrolled, to complete all requirements of the course.

For further information, contact aviation operations chair, Timothy Cwik, at (609) 343-4992 or tcwik@atlanticcape.edu.
