FTE Jerez ATPL Scholarship
I just saw that FTE Jerez have announced they're opening up applications for an ATPL scholarship for 2 people, as per their website:
They've put the full details on their website too!
FTEJerez has announced its first ATPL Scholarship. Through this initiative, the academy will sponsor the full price of an Airline First Officer Programme (FTE’s integrated ATPL course) for two successful candidates.
FTE’s ATPL Scholarship is open to European and UK nationals who are available to commence ATPL training in 2022. Selection of candidates will follow a similar format to that of an airline cadet programme. The award will be based on academic merits and performance throughout the selection process. In addition, the candidate’s family income will also be considered, as one of the main objectives of this scholarship is to support candidates to achieve their dream of becoming an airline pilot, regardless of their financial background.
The ATPL Scholarship will be launched on November 29th and applications will be accepted since then until the 31st December. Full details regarding eligibility criteria and assessment dates for candidates progressing to the next stages will be announced once applications go live.
The scholarship is designed to cover 100% of the fees of FTE’s Airline First Officer Programme. This includes not only the course fees, but also full-board accommodation on the FTE Campus, all training materials, uniform, iPad (electronic flight book), renewal of the Class1 medical and all landing, navigation and examination fees. Successful candidates will only have to pay for their personal expenses and their travel to Jerez to commence training.
Oscar Sordo, FTEJerez CEO, has commented that: “We are very excited to offer this opportunity to two motivated and deserving candidates, regardless of the ability to secure funding for their training. We also consider the scholarship as a fantastic landmark: Aviation is finally recovering following the pandemic and we are once again welcoming airline partners on campus seeking to recruit our graduates. In a way, this scholarship is a celebration of the industry returning to normality and of FTE’s leading position in the global aviation training arena”.
