I did not do my training through an Envoy partner school and my first CFI job was also not at a partner school. I was recently offered a position at a partner school though. I still have 600 hours to go until R-ATP mins and I was potentially interested the cadet program due to the MIA base that no other regional has.
Any info would be greatly appreciated!
From my understanding, yes, you should be able to. Submit an AirlineApps with your current hours, and then make sure to specify in the application that you’d like to be a cadet instructor. Originally Posted by kaputt

Since you’re at a partner school, my understanding is that American Airlines (name on the payroll, we all know it’s for Envoy) will be paying you to instruct (and the school simply reimburses American). And you’d effectively be a fully fledged employee of Envoy, including flight benefits, insurance, retirement.
At least this is how someone explained it to me. I may be wrong so if anyone else has more accurate info, please feel free to correct me!
