EasyJet Acknowledgement
Another important achievement marks the commitment and passion of our Academy in preparing the careers of our student pilots. Being recognized as a School of Excellence approved by EasyJet represents an important testimony to the advanced training provided by the school, but also a great opportunity, after the Wizz Air Pathway Programme, to quickly start our young pilots on a career after completing their ATPL training.
In fact, the easyJet company, after several years of collaboration with the Academy, has validated a specific selection process for Urbe Aero students to investigate only the psycho-aptitude aspects, skipping the technical part of evaluation on the simulator.
The first 12 Urbe Aero trainees participated in the easyJet selection process last November 2023. A further wave of young people should be expected by April 2024. The photo with Captain Giuseppe Diana, Chief Flight Instructor Urbe Aero, Captain Giorgio Peon Gonzalez, Head of Training at easyJet Europe and Prof. Lorenzo Mezzadri, Accountable Manager of the Academy proves this extraordinary result. This would not have been possible without the valuable contribution of Captain Daniele Grassini, Director of Training and Crew Standards at easyJet, and Captain Mark Farquhar, Head of Training at easyJet UK.
