PROGRAM OPTIONS
Our program options meet a variety of goals and individual situations. The modular program provides maximum flexibility for the courses selected and the program schedule. The integrated program offers a structured schedule and direct entry airline options. The cadet program is the most intense with higher requirements.
MODULAR DIPLOMA PROGRAM
Graduates of the program achieve a COMMERCIAL PILOT DIPLOMA and have the core credentials required to begin flying as a career. The program is designed as a one-on-one training environment where each student has an individual training plan and a dedicated flight instructor. The Modular Program can be completed on a full-time or part-time basis.
INTEGRATED ATPL
The Integrated Airline Transport Pilot Licence (iATPL) program is designed for students who wish to fast-track their goal of becoming a commercial airline pilot. It is an eighteen-month full-time training program that commences three times per year and prepares you for the airline industry. The iATPL Program requires a full-time commitment due to the workload during the program.
AIRLINE CADET PROGRAM
Students accepted into the Cadet Program receive a conditional offer of employment with the airline and transition directly into the airline upon graduation. Students are enrolled in the iATPL Program and received additional training to achieve a type rating for a jet.

GET THE COMPETITIVE EDGE IN THE JOB MARKET
The Genesis program starts you from the very first flight using the advanced equipment found on today’s airlines. Our Diamond DA40’s are modern all composite airframes with glass cockpits that are designed for the 21st century. We believe our commercial pilot students need to fly the same technology used by the airlines they will be working for.
The consistency of the G1000 flight deck from single engine to multi-engine and simulator allow you to graduate with expert-level proficiency using advanced flight managements systems.
WHAT IS A GLASS COCKPIT?
With rectangular computer displays replacing the familiar round flight instruments, and data presentation that differs considerably from the analog format, it’s no surprise that new airline crews feel lost, even uncomfortable, flying glass. This issue has been identified as a major weakness in the current flight training industry.
WHAT’S NEW ABOUT GLASS?
Other than the information they portray, pretty much everything is new: how they work, what drives them, how they share software and display failure modes, and, most significantly, how they actually look.
WHY IS GENESIS BETTER?
Genesis has completely embraced glass training. 100% of our fleet is glass, incorporating one of the most advanced electronic flight information systems (EFIS) available. Students get exposure to these systems starting on the first flight, and learn deeper functions in each training module.
