Hello everyone
I am from Belgium, and I am hoping through the feedback of other users I can make a decision on which academy to go with. I recently passed the written (ADX), all through the software of Sheppard Air as well as through the use of Sheffield’s app. I spend quite some time studying everything to ensure I will pass with flying colours, and I did. Being committed is not the issue.
To my knowledge, on the resume to which academy I went to doesn’t really matter as with universities. However the way a student gets taught to me is important, and for me I got two options. Jeppesen, the full package - the 6 weeks course, or through IFOD. The online option for a few months and ultimately 2 or 3 weeks subsequently in person.
The problem? I don’t know what’s best for me.
I am unsure if I will learn more with either one of the academies, in the end both are FAA Approved and the license is highly valued in Europe regardless. What I do find is that getting lots of physical books of Jeppesen for pre-study as I like to do, might be too overwhelming. I am pretty keen on things that are digitalised but am afraid that the IFOD option might also not be that good for me as it is being not really intense enough since I will learn everything over a span of several months instead of in a few weeks.
Did anyone recently did what I was suggested to by IFOD? How was your experience?
I feel Jeppesen is the safe option, but the books I would then wish to pre-study prior to going in might be too much.
Did anyone else have this dilemma as well?
Looking forward to your feedback.
Thank you..
All the best,
Dennis
