New CAE Oxford Aviation Academy ab initio ground school training location to open in Singapore

CAE Oxford Aviation Academy (CAE OAA) has signed a contract with Tigerair for a Multi-crew Pilot License (MPL) program. Under the agreement, CAE OAA will train new A320 First Officers for the Singapore-based carrier in a competency-based MPL program to be conducted at training locations in Singapore and Melbourne, Australia. Following a joint CAE Oxford Aviation Academy and Tigerair assessment and selection process, an initial group of 10 cadets will enrol in the MPL Program later this year.

CAE Oxford Aviation Academy

10 cadets at the later part of 2013 for this programme

Tigerair is recruiting very strongly

[flying.monkeyz]

Nothing wrong with airline getting more than one flight school to train pilots. Jetstar, Qatar, Emirates, BA all engaged more than one flight school.

Not heard anything official about STAA loosing the contract.

Be aged between 18 and 30 years old upon commencement of training

i wonder

it said that you have to be qualified as a PR on the requirement.
Means can apply pr or be a pr?

[skylark89]

200k where to dig??

[dagger19]

is there anyone who is in the process of this selection?

[sgcloudchaser]

when is the CAE Tiger MPL assessment?

[grey_11]

Quiet here

This program is hiring around the same time as the STAA Qatar MPL, probably those applicants will apply to this as well?

Has anyone gone for the assessment?

[bryanpzw]

STAA is still training Tiger Cadets, just not at the moment. My guess is they are overwhelmed by the large number of Qatar cadets they are having now.

STAA

They are, whole bunch of them in Ballarat now. Place is getting crowded...

[grey_11]

Anyone through to the final airline interview?

[N5748E]

Interview with CAE?

[Stallone]

Next Wed n Thurs, with Tigerair

should have about 6 prospects per day, so total is 12?

[grey_11]

How do you know that it'll be 6 prospects per day?

12 for 10 slots?

[wonderland]

10 slots? Heard a rumour that there's a course that also allocated for 10-ish cadets, in the end only 2 are still in the program.

[bryanpzw]

Stallone. You're going for QR and CAE tiger airline interview? Me too.

[dagger19]

good luck for those who are going tomorrow. =)

dont quote me but i think there will be 10 per day, 20 in total for selection for both oct13 and jun14 batches. in any case where they dont get enough, they will open slots like how they do for jetstar for this tiger selection.

at d end of the day its really competing against yourself i guess.

[flying.monkeyz]
