Additional Event Information & Acknowledgement of Industry Sponsor(s) Please read carefully before registering to attend this training.

NOTE: You do not need to become a training provider if you are an Authorized Instructor (CFI, Ground Instructor etc.) and merely want to do normal flight training with a student and provide them with WINGS activity credit. All you need to do to give credit is to download the flight activity you want to do with your student and do all that the guidelines require with the airmen showing proficiency in all required tasks as indicated in the appropriate Practical Test Standard.

Generally, a Training Provider would be an individual representing mid- to large size companies that want to provide knowledge and/or flight training to a large number of students or provide training materials, such as DVDs and/or on-line courses, to airmen.

If you have determined that you no longer need to be a WINGS Training Provider then please send an email to: WINGScoursesupport@FAASafety.gov with the words REMOVE ME FROM TP LIST in the subject line.%26nbsp;

If you feel your organization would still like to become a WINGS – Pilot Proficiency Program Training Provider, then please plan on attending the teleconference training session described below or one in the future.

You will need to be in front of a computer that has high speed Internet access, as well as being on the teleconference. The training will last about 2.0 hours.

If for some reason you cannot join us on this training session, don’t worry, we will have more training sessions in the near future.

To save time for everyone on the training session, please register for the training on FAASafety.gov. We limit participation to 10 to allow time for all to learn.
