Supporting Aviation Students

Unfortunately, some students who enroll in flight school leave before reaching their aviation career goals. It’s easy to lose sight of your original ambitions between a pilot training program’s personal, professional, and financial demands.

At Leading Edge Flight Academy, we take a proactive approach to helping our students stay on track. Our Student Success Team guides students in defining their aviation career goals and provides the resources and support they need to achieve them.

How It Works

Our Student Success Team represents a cross-section of all departments, including outside advisors and student representatives, to ensure we truly understand and address our students’ needs.

The Student Success Team works both behind the scenes and directly with students to help improve student retention, program completion, and goal achievement. First, we help students create realistic education and career goals through specific initiatives and quarterly meetings. Then, we monitor and support those goals throughout your time at Leading Edge Flight Academy.

Becoming an airline pilot has always been my ultimate goal, and Leading Edge provided the best opportunity to build my flight experience up to the minimums required by the airlines. I grew up watching airplanes fly into the Bend airport, and flying over my hometown on a daily basis is one of the highlights of my career so far. As a SkyWest pilot, I now find myself flying into many of the same airports I first visited during my time at Leading Edge!

Instructing at LEFA for 2.5 years not only got me the flight hours and experience necessary to make the next step in my career, but made the transition to flying bigger/faster aircraft easier. LEFA’s safety oriented, fast paced and professional program helped me sharpen valuable skills that have been necessary to meet the high safety and punctuality standards in the corporate pilot industry.
