EFC & Industry Partnerships
Securing trained pilots is an ongoing concern for aviation companies of all sizes in Alberta. EFC aims to create a pipeline of career-ready pilots to meet hiring needs of partners at a variety of skill levels. A “step-by step” approach through desired career paths will increase hiring success for companies requiring less flight hours and provide skilled pilots to airlines as their experience builds.
Our pathways for pilots include binding partnership agreements between Edmonton Flying Club and industry companies. These agreements ensure a mutual commitment to long-term success and sustainability for professional aviation in Alberta.
