Just finished up with the CFI academy in ADS and thought I'd give my .02 since I haven't seen a recent thread about them.

Overall, a great program IMO. Fast and relatively inexpensive. They hire all of their CFI's from within so if you are also in need of a job after, you won't have to look far. If you make it known that you would like to work there following your check rides, they'll start standardizing you before you're done with the program.

Great staff top to bottom. Everyone genuinely wants you to succeed and is willing to do what they can to help you through and show you how to be an effective instructor.

Couple of things to be aware of:
Unless you've passed your Commercial ride within the last month or so, plan to go over the allotted flight time budgeted into the program. Most everyone needs 1-2 flights over the 10hr budget.

Depending on the size of your academy, plan to be there past the 30 days. 45 is a pretty safe number based on myself and everyone I know that has also gone through.

Any low time guys thinking about choosing the CFI route, I would highly consider AF.
