Program Description
Students can earn wings over the land of the midnight sun. They get their commercial pilot license flying Yukon’s clear blue skies while gaining practical business skills for a career in aviation and beyond. The Aviation Management diploma at Yukon College trains in a unique northern climate that offers variable topography and an increased number of acceptable flying days. The Aviation Management diploma comprises a block transfer of pilot training credentials earned at Alkan Air (or other recognized flight school) that equals one year or 30 credits and an additional 30 credits earned at Yukon College. Students are expected to earn a commercial pilot license while concurrently earning academic credits. However, students may enter the program with some pilot training (a private pilot license for example) or a completed commercial license.
