The programme will run in two phases and will include 20 days of simulator training and evaluation in 15 separate sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2024\/05\/emirates-joins-iatas-turbulence-aware-platform.html\">Emirates joins IATA\u2019s Turbulence Aware Platform<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;With this programme, Emirates\u2019 pilots receive in-house competency-based training with highly qualified instructors, equipping them with world-class capabilities to support the airline\u2019s global operations. The tailored CBTA programme for the A350 supports the integration of the new aircraft to be inducted into our fleet, with 1,000 pilots set to complete the A350 type rating course,&#8221; said Capt. Bader Al Marzooqi, Emirates\u2019 Senior Vice President, Flight Training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Combining the expertise of Emirates, Airbus and IATA to design and deliver A350 type rating training is a unique opportunity. Our joint aim is to fully utilize the benefits of CBTA to qualify the pilots on the A350 in the most efficient and effective way possible,\u201d said Nick Careen, IATA\u2019s Senior Vice President for Operations, Safety and Security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The A350 is a state-of-the-art aircraft, which requires equally advanced training solutions. Our partnership with IATA and Emirates ensures that Emirates\u2019 pilots receive the most comprehensive and effective training, supporting the smooth entry- into- service of the A350 worldwide,&#8221; said Capt St\u00e9phan Labrucherie, Airbus Head of Flight Training Worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The A350 type rating programme is one of the ways Emirates is prepping the entry of its new A350 into service. Along with pilot training, other parts of the airline are also working on preparing for the debut of A350 operations including Service Delivery and Engineering teams, among other departments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid uagb-post-grid  uagb-post__image-position-top
