Topic: All Participants Will Be Updated On Recent Changes In Flight Training Methodology, Regulations, And Practical Examinations.

Are You Ready for the Right Seat? This question is one that each CFI asks himself or herself at various times. A self assessment is particularly important not only to new instructors, but to anyone who has taken a break from flight instructing. Designated Pilot Examiner and Master CFI Karen Kalishek will provide techniques and tools to help CFIs both prepare for and improve their instruction. Flight instructors at all levels of experience will benefit from her DPE insights, tips, and interactive discussion during this program.
