Hello,

I apologize in advance if I posted this in the wrong forum, I am quite new to this website.

As the subject says, recently I’ve been looking more into getting into an instructor program to obtain the rating.
I would like some recommendations to some institutions in which you folks had positive experiences in. I graduated from the Moncton College’s diploma program a few months ago and have moved back to Montreal. Looking around my local area yielded nothing, sent a few emails to schools around and received no responses.

While the College in Moncton is definitely an option, I am considering a change is scenery, hence asking for any other recommendations.

Thank you for your time.

When are you looking to do that training?

As soon as possible really. Earlier the better but I do not mind waiting a few months and whatnot for intake dates.

I think it's really important that you find a school with a good track record of hiring its own graduates.

Look into Aviation MH in Rivière-du-Loup. In the end, you need to find a CFI that you trust will make you the best instructor you can be.

Maybe consider Alkan Air up in The Yukon.

We have a school in Fort Smith, NT. Winter is hard on the flight but it's a great time to do the ground and be ready for the spring.

It's the Terry Harrold School of aviation.

But with Alkan you will have a better view than us!

Any schools in Ontario that do this? I was looking at spectrum and brampton flight centre.
I do need a school that is a DLI.

Yes, Brampton has several class 1's to do instructor ratings. It's all self paced. Ground can be on on one, or in a group. They also hire a lot of their newly trained instructors.

Okay, I'll make sure to visit the school once I come.

Spectrum has 3 class 1 instructors and is a DLI. We prefer to hire our own graduates but it’s based on demand. There is no job guarantee. We want our instructors to be able to fly a reasonable amount rather than scratching for students.

Understood. Both Spectrum and Brampton are on my radar then and I'll vist them both.
Does Spectrum do a group ground school?
