The Airline Pilot Club (APC) today announced that three innovative aviation training leaders Barcelona Flight School (Spain), Schreiner University (US-Texas), and Global Flight Training Solutions (US-Florida) —have adopted Amelia, APC’s Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered platform, to elevate their training programs beyond regulatory standards. These early adopters are not only improving operational efficiency but also setting new industry benchmarks by leveraging AI to optimize recruitment, deliver personalized learning paths, and accelerate pilot proficiency.
Amelia: A complete AI platform that powers training beyond regulations
Supporting Evidence-Based Training (EBT) and Competency-Based Training and Assessment (CBTA) frameworks, Amelia delivers a suite of AI-driven applications that address each phase of a pilot’s journey—from recruitment and training to operational readiness:
- AI-Powered Recruitment: Amelia automates candidate profiling through behavioral and competency-based assessments, ensuring airlines select the most capable pilots for their operational needs. The platform’s data-driven recruitment process reduces recruitment both time and costs by up to 30%.
- Adaptive Learning Paths: By utilizing predictive analytics and machine learning, Amelia personalizes training programs to each pilot’s strengths and weaknesses. This reduces the time to operational readiness by up to 25%, delivering capable pilots more efficiently.
- Real-Time Feedback and Competency Mapping: Amelia continuously monitors pilot performance through real-time feedback, allowing for tailored adjustments in training programs. The platform’s In-Training and End-of-Training reports provide comprehensive competency mapping, reducing the need for remedial training while improving safety outcomes.
- Scenario-Based Training and Virtual Coaching: With advanced scenario-based simulations and virtual coaching capabilities, pilots can experience realistic in-flight challenges. This optimization of simulator usage reduces overall training costs by up to 25% while reducing minimizing reliance on costly in-aircraft training.
- Remedial Training and Root Cause Analysis: When training gaps are identified, Amelia automatically generates personalized remedial plans. This feature not only helps pilots address specific competency challenges more effectively but also reduces remedial training costs.
- Instructor and Training Department Tools: Instructors benefit from briefing, debriefing, and guided scenario training tools. Meanwhile, training departments can leverage comprehensive data analytics to refine programs and align them with operational goals and industry standards.
Visionary early adopters
Barcelona Flight School, Global Flight Training Solutions, and Schreiner University are recognized for their foresight in adopting Amelia to not only meet but exceed regulatory standards for professional pilot training. By focusing on delivering Training Beyond Regulation, they are ensuring their pilots possess the behavioral competencies and real-world skills essential for safe and efficient airline operations.
“Barcelona Flight School, Global Flight Training Solutions, and Schreiner University are leading the charge in Training Beyond Regulation,” said Andy O’Shea, CEO, Airline Pilot Club. “Their willingness to adopt Amelia reflects their commitment to reducing recruitment costs, accelerating pilot readiness, and ensuring that the pilots they train are capable of meeting the complex demands of modern aviation. We are proud to partner with such visionary institutions.”
“We believe that Amelia will make a significant difference in how we train our pilots,” said Carl Davis, MS, FRAeS, Director – Aviation Studies at Shreiner Universities. “The platform’s ability to tailor learning paths to individual needs and provide real-time feedback is exactly what we need to ensure our students are not just proficient but highly capable, adaptable pilots.”
