Type Training Learning Model

Online Theory supported by Practical on Course.

The College’s Part 147 theory and practical Type training courses are instructor led, with each day averages 7 hours. If you miss a day, the instructor will work with you to rectify the missed material/hours. The College will use Microsoft Teams when delivering theory courses.

Theory assessments are carried out using invigilators, results are received within a few hours after completing exams. Practical-on-course (POC) assessments are carried out during the POC and marked off by the instructor.

Sigma Aerospace College philosophy is simple: utilise the best instructors with the best industry knowledge, and you get the best training outcomes to connect you with an outstanding career in aviation.

Kevan’s knowledge, support material and his delivery were second to none.
Kevan’s knowledge, support material and his delivery were second to none. I admit prior I was unsure as I have never done this kind of training online before, always been face to face. But even with the IT challenges at times, it went well. “I have had extremely knowledgable instructors before, but I think in the entire 7 weeks of [Type Training] instruction we only stumped him twice, but he had the answer in no time! Outside of that he never even paused when a question was asked, it was immediately responded to without taking a breath! Impressive.
