Exam Prep Seminars YVR Airport
2009
Our line of accelerated test prep seminars offer an excellent opportunity to prepare for Transport Canada written aviation exams on a fast track basis and to provide a comprehensive final review of mandatory subjects before writing the appropriate aviation examination. We are pleased to offer the following accelerated exam prep seminars from our training centre at YVR Vancouver International Airport to assist pilots/flight crew, flight dispatchers, AME's and PRM's towards achieving their goal of mastering their Transport Canada written examination.
General Information
SEMINAR LOCATION. Our seminars are conducted at our training centre conveniently located near the main terminal of YVR International Airport (in the vicinity of the Air Canada hangars) at Unit 130 - 5980 Miller Road, YVR International Airport. We do not currently offer our seminars at other locations in Canada.
REGISTRATION. Advance registration is required for all seminars: we do not accept registrations on the actual commencement date of a scheduled seminar. Seating is limited to 8 students (we keep our class size small to ensure optimal training - we strongly recommend early registration to reserve a space and to allow time for your training manuals to reach you and for further time to advance study). If a seminar is full, we will not process your registration and we will contact you to confirm whether you wish to register for an alternate date.
BOOKS AND SUPPLIES. For each seminar, the required, mandatory texts are the applicable Culhane course manual and supplemental written test book, most current editions. These texts are extra and are not included in the basic seminar fee. Supplies (e.g. flight computer, protractors etc.) are extra. Advanced reading of course texts is strongly recommended - those who do not complete any advance study will have difficulty keeping up with the pace of our seminar. No other secondary books or references are necessary for the purposes of attending our seminars. Students should bring lined note paper, pens/pencils/highlighters etc. For all seminars other than AME, a flight computer is required (E6B, CR or electronic flight computer as per student preference).
PRIVATE AND COMMERCIAL CERTIFICATIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS. PPL/CPL students will need a letter of recommendation from their primary flying instructor to sit Transport Canada PPL or CPL exam (no recommendations needed to sit the other exams). In accordances with CARs, only the student's PRIMARY flying school can supply such certifications or recommendations - we have no authority to issue these.
SEMINAR PRE-REQUISITES. Other than for our Flight Dispatcher course (see below) we do not have any mandatory course pre-requisites other than our recommendation that seminar students obtain our training texts well in advance of the intended seminar and pre-read as much as possible - a minimum of 40 hours advance study is suggested.
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR FLIGHT DISPATCHER CANDIDATES. Those wishing to enroll in our Flight Dispatcher seminar who have no aviation experience of any kind whether as a pilot, weather briefer, etc. will have significant difficulties keeping up with the pace of our seminar given the advanced nature of the materials we teach and we therefore require that such persons must complete in full our Commercial Pilot online ground school course prior to being eligible for enrollment in our Flight Dispatcher seminar.
STUDENT POSTPONEMENTS/CANCELLATIONS POLICY. Students having registered for an upcoming seminar are permitted to postpone their registration for any future alternate scheduled upcoming seminar date, space permitting, without penalty, provided that we are given at least 24 hours advance notice before the original seminar commences.
HOTELS AND ACCOMODATIONS. There are several YVR Airport area hotels and accomodations at budget, moderate and luxury price ranges that are all within 1 - 3 KM of our seminar facility and that all offer a free airport to hotel shuttle service.
CUSTOMER PARKING. We provide free customer parking fronting our training centre.
TRANSPORT CANADA TESTING CENTRE - YVR AIRPORT/RICHMOND. Students completing our training can write their TC writtens at the nearby Transport Canada Testing Centre - Richmond (only a few blocks away from our training centre) at 400 - 3600 Lysander Lane (beside the Delta Inn, in the Harmony Air office building) telephone 604-666-8777. Note: The Transport Canada TCC requires that an advance appointment be made for a given TC written exam, and is open for testing during office hours M - F.
REVENUE CANADA TUITION FEE RECEIPTS. We are not a registered educational training institution and we have no authority to issue Revenue Canada tuition fee receipts for income tax deductions. Our courses should be considered tutoring services only.
