Training is some of the very best in dispatch. I have heard majors have sent people to observe their model. It’s hard to find better dispatch training and experience!
St. George is pretty quiet and safe. If you love the outdoors there’s alot to do! About 1 1/2 hours from Vegas.

What makes their Training different from the others ? What's unique and stands out about it ?

It’s really thorough and well thought out. The way they teach certain principles is really clear. The training is also very interactive. It’s not just you sitting there listening to someone give a lecture all day. The instructors have been teaching for many years and have it mastered.

They get 3 weeks of ground 2-3 months of on the job with a trainer checking their releases training and growing their skill set then a 8 hour desk check being watched before being signed off. They also step up work load start at 25 flights and first 4 weeks add 5 a time till you're boiling and didn't even know it. Places like piedmont do 3 weeks of ground, 2 weeks of on job training and they don't even do a live desk check to get signed off, just a testing through conversation.
