You will work closely with CAE Qualified Flying Instructors (CQFIs) and participate in the Integrated Product Team (IPT) and Training Development Team (TDT).
In collaboration with the Courseware Instructional System Designer (ISD), you will review and advise on module outlines, storyboards, and courseware to ensure technical accuracy and alignment with the RCAF Training Plan. You will also contribute to Flight Training Operations design, Ground‑Based Training Systems (GBTS) design, and training device design.
This is a non‑flying role, focused heavily on new courseware development for the FAcT program. You will be deeply involved in storyboard reviews, outline reviews, and final approvals across multiple development stages. You will collaborate closely with the CQFI team throughout all phases.
