At Symbiotics we understand the importance of screening candidates prior to them starting the pilot training process to predict how likely they are to be able to cope with the demands of pilot training.
The use of pilot aptitude testing can help to predict the success of a candidate, ensuring that the people accepted onto the course have the aptitude for learning as well as a good level of knowledge in areas such as maths and physics, to stand them in a good stead to be successful in the training, improving your pass rate and the overall quality of the candidates coming through your pilot training course, as well as improving the overall experience had by the candidates.
At Symbiotics we have extensive experience working with Aviation Training Organisations and what is required in the pilot aptitude testing process for people applying to join a flight school at a cadet level. We combine our in-house technical capability with psychology skills to help to ensure your candidates are likely to go on to be successful in your training programme and ultimately in their career as a pilot.

High quality instructors can be the key to both candidate enjoyment levels and pass rates of a particular flight school and can set you apart from your competition, however they can be difficult to find and retain.
Pilot aptitude testing can be used to gather further insights into how likely someone is to be successful in the role of an instructor, looking at their instructing style and their motivations for becoming an instructor.
At Symbiotics we have a battery of tests specifically designed at an instructor level, each designed by our psychology team to predict how good a fit someone is for your organisation as well as how successful they are likely to be as an instructor and their likelihood to remain in the role for the long term.
