CAE recently welcomed Dr. Brendan Nelson, President of Boeing Global, and his team to their Montreal headquarters. This visit highlights the longstanding partnership between CAE and Boeing, which encompasses a wide range of commercial and defense initiatives. Last year, CAE became a Boeing Authorized Training Provider, reinforcing their collaboration. CAE was also the first to offer Boeing’s Competency-Based Training and Assessment (CBTA) curriculum to airline customers.

The shift to CBTA methodology in pilot training focuses on developing and evaluating skills, knowledge and behaviors essential for pilots to operate safely and efficiently in a commercial air transport environment. Boeing’s implementation of CBTA leverages digitally-advanced tools and fleet operations data to customize training to each individual, and helps pilots efficiently respond to in-flight challenges.

“As a Boeing authorized training provider, CAE will leverage its expertise and global network to expand access to high-quality training on Boeing commercial aircraft and give pilots the skills and knowledge they need for peak performance in the flight deck,” shared Marc Parent, CAE’s President and CEO in 2023. “Boeing and CAE are working together to enhance aviation safety, and this agreement ensures more pilots worldwide are ready for the moments that matter.”
