Description

CAE is JetBlue’s training partner of choice for the JetBlue’s Gateway Select cadet program. CAE delivers Gateway Select's training curriculum, leveraging CAE's experience in delivering competency-based training programs to airlines throughout the world.

About the program

Gateway Select is an innovative talent pathway for those seeking to become pilots at JetBlue. This particular Gateway Program will allow an applicant, if successful, to learn with JetBlue from the beginning and become a JetBlue pilot after completing a rigorous training program.

This unique, accessible and cost-effective JetBlue Pilot Gateway Program will take a more competency-based approach to becoming a professional pilot. The Program will optimize the training of prospective airline pilots by offering early exposure to multi-crew/multi-engine operations, full-motion simulator training, crew resource management, and threat and error management. Once meeting all program requirements, including the FAA's 1,500 flight-hour requirement, pilots will become a new hire at JetBlue. At that time, graduates will go through the same orientation and six-week instruction that all first officers complete.

If accepted into the program, students follow a multi-phase training sequence over the course of three-four years.
