The Jet Orientation Course (JOC) is the exact training program which will provide you with a smooth transition from a piston engine aircraft to jet airline operations. During the course you will develop pilot handling skills, special awareness in the jet environment and practice for an airline simulation assessment.
It is worth noticing that some airlines during the selection process consider completion of the JOC a mandatory qualification for a pilot to have.
