The Instructor Rating can be started once you have completed the Commercial Pilot Licence. Training consists of 25 hours of ground briefing and 30 hours of dual flight training, including a minimum of 5 hours of instrument time. Candidates can expect to spend about 250 hours of their own time developing their lesson plans and refining their instructional techniques. A written examination (minimum pass mark 70%) and a flight test with a Transport Canada Examiner will complete the rating. While there is no solo time requirement for the Instructor Rating, practice is strongly recommended.
