Why Choose Melbourne Innovation Innovation is central to our training philosophy. From incorporating Multi-Crew Co-operation and First Officer Fundamentals training into our programs, to pioneering the new Multi-Crew Pilot Licence in Hong Kong, CAE Oxford Aviation Academy embraces a culture of continuous innovation. Corporate Relationships The relationships that we build with our corporate partners are equally as important as the emphasis we place upon delivering top quality, customer-focused pilot training to our students. CAE Oxford Aviation Academy Melbourne has an extensive history of training pilots for Australian Universities, general aviation and major airline customers from the Australian and Asia-Pacific region. In 1998, the Melbourne academy partnered with Qantas to create the Qantas Cadet Pilot Training Program at the same time pioneering the Multi Crew Co-operation (MCC) course in Australia. Then in 2009, CAE Oxford Aviation Academy was awarded the contract to train airline pilots for Jetstar Australia leading directly from ab initio training into employment as First Officers flying the A320 aircraft. A similar cadet program for Singapore-based carrier, Jetstar Asia, soon followed. More recently, 2011 saw the launch of the Melbourne academy s first MPL program with Hong Kong-based carrier Dragonair. Significantly, over 5,000 graduates that trained in Melbourne are now employed as flight crew with Australian and overseas airlines some having trained either as an airline cadet or as part of an Aviation Program with the Swinburne University of Technology with whom the Melbourne academy has been in partnership since 1992.
