1. Overview
In November 2017, the Government of Qatar and ICAO jointly established a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to jointly administer a scholarship programme called the Qatar- ICAO Developing Countries Scholarship Programme (“DCSP”) in order to provide training scholarships for participants to be nominated by and selected from designated non-Arabic speaking ICAO Member States (“Developing Countries”).
The objective of this Programme is to augment the capabilities of the Developing Countries to implement the ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices and to promote the safety and development of civil aviation.
The Developing Countries to be designated shall generally be countries that are most in need of assistance especially in the area of aviation training.
Five participants will be awarded Scholarships to follow any of the six QAC two-year diploma programmes set forth below.
The training programmes will be conducted in the English language by lecturers and specialists selected by QCAA and will take place in Qatar on QCAA and QAC premises.

PURPOSE
The QAC PTD's flight training programme is based on the UK CAA's integrated course of training. It is approved by QCAA and mirrors the EASA Flight Crew Licensing training procedures. It is designed to take suitably capable cadets with no previous flight experience to the right hand seat of a commercial airliner in minimal time.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
QAC offers a 24 months full time Diploma in Aviation Studies programme leading to the issue of a QCAA Commercial Pilot License (CPL) with Multi-Engine Class Rating, and an Instrument Rating (IR). Upon gaining flight experience, this license is then automatically eligible for upgrade to a QCAA Airline Transport Pilot's License (ATPL (A)).
WHAT IS COVERED
The Integrated ATPL (A) course consists of 847 hours of theoretical knowledge training delivered over three stages, leading to 14 QCAA examinations in the following subject areas:
On the flying side, our syllabus contains a total of 186 hours of actual flight training, consisting of:
There are progress tests at the end of each flying phase and two QCAA Flight Tests resulting in the issuance of a QCAA Commercial Pilot License in a Multi-Engine Airplane with Instrument Flying privileges.
The Integrated ATPL course concludes with a 3 week long, 40 hours Jet Orientation and Multi-Crew Cooperation course in the college's Cessna Citation Jet or A320 simulator. At this point, the freshly graduated cadets are ready for type training with an airline. A typical entry-level aircraft would be the Airbus A320.
LEARNING ACTIVITIES
The Integrated ATPL course is a tight time bound intense course. The key thrust is to learn the theoretical concepts in a classroom environment and then applying this underpinning knowledge to achieve an effective, safe and realistic flying training experience. The student performance is monitored by an established Progress and Assessment Monitoring System (PAMS) which involves a series of planned progress tests/ exams/ competency checks at various milestones. This entails that the student has to be a full time student and actively participate in classroom activities and practical training. QCAA regulation mandates that the student has to complete a minimum of 750 hours of theoretical classroom attendance for issue of the licence.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
This programme is benefited to candidates who have successfully completed senior secondary school with mathematics and physics and have good proficiency in English. The Pre-entry requirements are as follows:
a. Minimum age 17 years.
b. Achieve IELTS scores: Reading 5.5, Listening 5.5, Speaking 5.5 and Overall 5.5.
c. Achieve passes in all subjects in the Foundation Program, (Maths 75% and Physics 75%) and /
or provide educational equalisation certificates.
d. Hold a valid Qatar Class 1 Medical Certificate.
e. Have passed the Maths and Physics examinations set by QAC and have achieved a grade 5 or above in the Pilot Aptitude Test (PILAPT).
