Distance Learning UK
Path2Pilot has over 10 years of teaching ATPL subject and is a CAA and EASA approved ground school. Over the last few years, we have developed an online distanced learning approach which has grown from strength to strength, offering our students the same high quality learning experience with flexibility in mind. Our Distance Learning ATPL Ground School training is delivered by UK-based Path2pilot.com for your CAA or EASA exams - wherever in the world you are located. It is a flexible and personalised part-time course lasting from 11 to 19 months for inexperienced pilots (military pilots and license conversion candidates have the Fast Track option below). So you can fit your studying around your other commitments by choosing a learning pace that will suit you, your individual study plan will be agreed with you in advance.
What's Involved?
Allowing our students to study from the comfort of their own home, our distanced learning approach provides the very best reference material in the form of electronic iBooks with embedded pictures, videos and progress tests to ensure that you are learning the subjects thoroughly and well enough to acheive a high pass mark in the exams. You also get full support from our highly experienced Instructors who are all current or past airline pilots or engineers.
Our course is broken down into 4 modules each with 3 subjects. Our distanced learners are given a designated instructor who oversees your progress and achievements on a monthly basis. You are given 121 sessions to raise questions, ask for advice and share study tips, so we can pro-actively guide you on your route to success. You will get an instructor led revision day with a practice style exam to ensure that you are ready for the real exams.
