It is designed to prepare students for employment as professional pilots and for leadership roles in a variety of flight operations settings, or for enrollment in an appropriate masters degree program.

The Daniel Webster College Professional Pilot Education Course is a key component of the Aviation Flight Operations program. The course consists of a sequence of required flight practicum, correlated with associated classroom courses. Each course is based upon mastery of critical flying skills, aeronautical knowledge, and the development and seasoning of pilot judgment through progressively more challenging "Line-Oriented Flight Training (LOFT)" tasks and missions, conducted in a mix of uniquely capable instructional aircraft and advanced flight simulators.

Upon completion of the third flight practicum, AF 258P, the student has two options for meeting degree requirements. Both options prepare the student for the FAA commercial pilot certificate with instrument rating. The first option accomplishes that with the addition of multi-engine rating courses, AF 328P and 338P. Students electing the second option, by taking courses AF 328SEP and AF 338SEP, also must complete the classroom course and flight practicum in preparation for the Flight Instructor Certificate AF 409 and AF 409P.

Daniel Webster College holds Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Air Agency Certificate # LT8S306Q as an approved pilot school, and operates its flight instructional courses under Part 141 and Part 61 of the Federal Aviation Regulations. Students completing these courses will earn pilot certificates and ratings issued by the FAA, as noted.
