ASA Course Covers Proficiency Skills For Initial Certificates 

ASA's new Combined Commercial and Flight Instructor Syllabus (PDF) covers all necessary flight proficiency skills a pilot needs to meet the requirements for an initial commercial pilot certificate and an initial flight instructor certificate, with an airplane category and single-engine land class rating.

Author Arlynn McMahon developed this combined program that eliminates the overload of facing two separate, exhaustive training programs resulting in a more efficient use of time, energy, and money. For an industry coping with yet another shortage of flight instructors, this combined approach is a fast-track for pilots who would love the opportunity to share their passion and experience with others.

By interweaving learning the material with teaching the material, this course better equips users to apply the information later on in their own flight instructing. The course will also help turn regular pilots into aviation citizens and work-ready professionals, by teaching them to think like an experienced pro pilot and how to prepare for a lucrative career in aviation training.
 
The Combined Commercial and Flight Instructor Syllabus includes a comprehensive list of required textbooks and handbooks so that flight schools and flight instructors know exactly what they need in order to support their instruction, and transfer the knowledge their students need to complete the course.
