ASG ATPL students achieved a 100% pass rate in the IAA's March ATPL sitting. We're very proud of them all.

THis resul could not have been achieved without our professional team which truly differentiates us from other training providers; each instructor is chosen for their subject matter expertise and practical industry experience—invaluable resources to the student experience and helps to bring the ATPL subjects to life.

ASG has agreed a partnership to work closely with Simtech Aviation to provide students with preferential access and rates to undertake Simtech Aviation's industry leading APS-MCC (Airline Pilot Specific Multi-Crew Co-operation) and MCC-JOC (Multi-Crew Co-operation and Jet Orientation Course) courses. ASG will also now provide ATPL theory training on behalf of Simtech Aviation and its customers.

Key ATPL theory features

All ATPL theory training can be completed online, including revision classes, or students can elect to alternate between attending class online (login) or in-class (sit-in).
If attending classes remotely, there are no travel or visa costs
Students can elect to sit the ATPL examinations in any EASA member state
The industry's leading ATPL instructional team (see here for details).

Commenting on the partnership, Diarmuid O'Riordan (ASG founder), noted:

"We are delighted to partner with Simtech Aviation which has been a pillar brand in aviation training for many years. Both ASG & Simtech Aviation have a firm vision of delivering the highest quality aviation training.

ASG's administrative and classroom facilities will now be permanently based at Simtech's unique aviation training centre. Our ATPL students are fortunate to have the opportunity to learn in a 20,000 square feet training centre located right next to Dublin Airport in a facility which has been designed from the ground up to provide a best-in-class learning environment for aviation professionals. We are fortunate to share this fantastic facility with a number of airlines and training organisations and it houses a fleet of Full-motion and fixed-base Flight Simulation Devices, some of which our students get to sample on their breaks from classes. It really is a unique aviation training environment which is ideal for any aspiring aviation student.

Although it is not the most expensive component of Pilot training, the decision as to where to complete an APS/MCC/JOC course is one of the most important choices which a student will face in terms of their likely success with Airline Assessments and subsequent Type Ratings. I completed my own MCC/JOC course with Simtech Aviation so I can personally testify to the exceptional standard of Pilot training that they provide. There is simply no better preparation for a job with an Airline and we are delighted to be able to expand our partnership with them".

Des Wynne, Simtech Aviation Sales Director, added: "We are delighted to offer ATPL theory courses as a part of our overall services offering. This will enable both enable experienced ICAO Commercial Pilot License holders convert to an EASA license and EASA PPL holders looking to move to a Commercial Pilots License complete their theory course with some of the best instructors in the industry. The added benefit of being able to attend the classes via an online platform enables us to access the global training market and we are excited by the potential opportunities".

ASG are proud to announce the launch of our Private Pilot Licence (PPL) theory course.

In order to launch this new course, we are offering the first eight students who enroll in our PPL theory course a 25% discount on the course price of €900 (just €675). Our first classes will take place over four days of the first two weekends (2nd, 3rd, 9th, 10th) in July just prior to the Irish Aviation Authority (IAA) examination sittings which take place on 26th - 28th July 2021.

Speaking about the new course, ASG MD, Diarmuid O'Riordan, commented that:

"We're delighted to be adding to the number of courses that we can offer student Pilots. After a number of years of delivering high quality Air Transport Pilot Licence (ATPL) theory, the ASG brand has become synonymous with providing a premium quality theoretical training product to our customers. We decided that it was time that we applied this same approach and training philosophy to students undergoing Private Pilot training.

Uniquely, with our hybrid classroom, we will be able to deliver this high quality EASA certified training to PPL students anywhere in the world. This innovative concept provides our customers with the ultimate flexibility when choosing how they would like to attend their PPL revision classes with us. The concept is simple: our "live" PPL revision classes are conducted on location in Dublin, Ireland. Some students may be "in-class" and others will be attending by logging in. In order to ensure a fantastic classroom experience for those who choose to attend remotely, we have invested in 4K webcams, a dedicated instructor login station, and a classroom facing flat-screen display where the faces of those attending remotely will even be displayed to the students who are attending physically - so everyone will feel part of our "hybrid" classroom environment!"

ASG limits class sizes to ensure the optimum learning environment, supports students throughout their PPL training journey, and deliver the highest standard of theoretical knowledge instruction. Through our high quality instruction, aside from being more likely to excel at your exams, you are likely to retain this important information as a Private Pilot.

Our facilities are a unique aviation training environment ideal for an aspiring aviation student. With over 20,000 square feet available located next to Dublin Airport, the entire building has been designed from the ground up to provide a bespoke, convenient and a best-in-class learning environment for aviation professionals.

Please see here for further details on our PPL course. If you have any questions, please e-mail ppl@asg.ie or call us on +35316859021.
