Why Choose Gleim for STEM Aviation?

Professional Development

Gleim Aviation online courses are used by teachers for their own professional development to master aviation instruction so they can engage their students with an inspiring aviation curriculum. After completing each course, you will be prepared to pass the FAA knowledge test, which is required to become certificated as a ground instructor and/or remote pilot.

Becoming a Ground Instructor

Ground Instructors are qualified to teach aeronautical knowledge. Basic Ground Instructors (BGIs) can teach and endorse students to test for sport, recreational, and private pilot tests. Advanced Ground Instructors (AGIs) can also teach and endorse any student level, except the instrument rating. The Gleim Flight and Ground Instructor Online Ground School includes basic and advanced aviation concepts from aerodynamics to weather, airplane systems to navigation, and more. The course is a self-directed study course designed to prepare you to pass the FAA Advanced Ground Instructor Knowledge Test.

You can use this course to study at your own pace. The course takes about 35 hours to complete using our sophisticated Knowledge Transfer System to ensure that you master all of the information required to be a competent ground instructor and pass your FAA knowledge test with confidence.

Becoming a Drone Pilot

The remote pilot certificate is your license to fly drones for hire and get paid as a professional drone operator of small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS). The Gleim FAA Test Prep Online is a unique, easy-to-use program that contains the study outlines, FAA questions, and on-screen charts and figures needed to study for and pass the Remote Pilot – sUAS FAA Knowledge Test. As a remote pilot you are authorized to act as the pilot in command while overseeing another person flying an sUAS.

During training, teachers will gain the aeronautical knowledge for all required topics from regulations to radio communications, airspace to aeronautical decision making, and more. The Remote Pilot Test Prep Online has hundreds of multiple-choice questions available, including all previously released FAA questions and Gleim written questions.

Preparing for the FAA Fundamentals of Instruction (FOI) Exam

The Fundamentals of Instructing (FOI) course will fully prepare educators to teach aviation. The course covers learning processes, barriers to learning, human behavior, effective communication, teaching methods, lesson planning, and student critiques and evaluations. You are not required to take the FOI knowledge test if you hold a current teacher’s certificate authorizing you to teach at a 7th grade educational level or higher, or are currently employed as a teacher at an accredited college or university. You can use this course to study at your own pace.

The course takes about 35 hours to complete using our sophisticated Knowledge Transfer System to ensure that you master the Fundamentals of Instruction FAA knowledge test.
