What Is the Jet Orientation Course (JOC)?
The Jet Orientation Course is a preparatory program designed to help commercial pilots transition from single-pilot to multi-crew jet operations. It focuses on jet handling techniques, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), and cockpit dynamics that are essential in airline training. While it’s not a regulatory requirement, most airlines and training centers recommend JOC before enrolling in MCC (Multi-Crew Cooperation) courses or airline assessments.Why JOC Training Matters Before Entering an Airline
