To cultivate a generation of pilots who not only meet but exceed the demands and expectations of our dynamic industry. To achieve this, we recognise the vital role that your insights, experiences, and expertise could play in shaping the future of aviation training in our country. We are specifically seeking participation from operators across various segments, including airlines, first job providers and Part 135 companies, and flight training organisations. Your unique perspectives and knowledge are invaluable assets as we endeavour to identify and overcome the obstacles that hinder the development of top-tier aviators. At the heart of our initiative is the recognition that while pilot training predominantly occurs at the 141/142 level, comprehensive improvement requires input from all levels of the industry. We are committed to fostering an environment where feedback flows freely, from the bottom up and the top down, ensuring that our efforts are truly reflective of the diverse needs and challenges faced by all stakeholders. Moreover, we are acutely aware of the importance of aligning pilot training with the evolving demands of the job market. It is not enough to produce pilots who simply tick off syllabus requirements; rather, we must equip them with the skills and competencies needed to excel in their careers from day one including UPRT skill sets. Your participation will be instrumental in guiding flight schools towards this goal, mitigating the risk of producing pilots ill-prepared for the realities of our industry. In the spirit of collaboration and progress, we invite you to join us in this important forum. Your participation in discussions, sharing of insights, and contributions to the development of actionable strategies will be pivotal in shaping the future of pilot training in Australia. The open forum on the 1st and 2nd of July in Brisbane will facilitate these discussions with guest speakers UPRT specialists Rich Stowell (USA), Mark Greenfield (UK), as well
