Innovation
Innovation is central to our training philosophy. From incorporating Multi-Crew
Co-operation and First Officer Fundamentals training into our programs, to
pioneering the new Multi-Crew Pilot Licence in Hong Kong, CAE Oxford Aviation
Academy embraces a culture of continuous innovation.
Corporate Relationships
The relationships that we build with our corporate partners are equally as important
as the emphasis we place upon delivering top quality, customer-focused pilot
training to our students.
CAE Oxford Aviation Academy Melbourne has an extensive history of training pilots
for Australian Universities, general aviation and major airline customers from the
Australian and Asia-Pacific region.
In 1998, the Melbourne academy partnered with Qantas to create the Qantas Cadet
Pilot Training Program – at the same time pioneering the Multi Crew Co-operation
(MCC) course in Australia. Then in 2009, CAE Oxford Aviation Academy was
awarded the contract to train airline pilots for Jetstar Australia leading directly from
ab initio training into employment as First Officers flying the A320 aircraft. A similar
cadet program for Singapore-based carrier, Jetstar Asia, soon followed. More
recently, 2011 saw the launch of the Melbourne academy’s first MPL program with
Hong Kong-based carrier Dragonair.
Significantly, over 5,000 graduates that trained in Melbourne are now employed
as flight crew with Australian and overseas airlines – some having trained either as
an airline cadet or as part of an Aviation Program with the Swinburne University of
Technology with whom the Melbourne academy has been in partnership since 1992.
Training Facilities
Our modern training facilities at Moorabbin Airport include ‘state of the art’ classrooms,
a modern fleet of EFIS Cessna 172 single engine and Piper PA44 multi engine training
aircraft and a fully equipped simulator training centre featuring 5 simulators including
a CRJ200 GenJet simulator. Ample student accommodation is available in close
proximity to the airport all serviced by Academy transport services.
Moorabbin Airport is also constructed with 2 sets of parallel runways, a control
tower, Class D airspace and published instrument approach procedures; making it
absolutely ideal for airline pilot training in all types of weather conditions.

Modular Training Pathway
The Modular Training Pathway is ideal for those that
wish to undertake pilot training as a self-funded
student on a more ‘part-time’ basis. The modular
pathway is a more flexible alternative to achieving
your aspirations to become a pilot.
The modular pathway consists of the following
programs that can be completed in sequence or
trainee pilots can enroll on a course at any level as
long as you meet the license pre-requisites:
• General Flying Progress Test
• Private Pilot License
• Commercial Pilot Licence
• Multi Engine Command Instrument Rating
• Flight Instructor Rating
• Combined MCC / JOC
Commercial Pilot Licence
To start a career as a professional pilot you need to
hold a Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL).
Designed to take the student to the next step in
their professional piloting career, this course will
equip the student with the knowledge and skill
required to succeed.
CAE Oxford Aviation Academy’s Commercial Pilot
Licence Program builds upon your experience
as a Private Pilot and combines the additional
necessary skills required to fly multi-engine aircraft
cross-country to professional standards.
