They are held at Westjet,Sunwing,Air Transat and Enerjet and when you get hired by one of these companies You will get a 737 NG endorsement. Really quite simple

And that would be a Type Rating you're after, not an "endorsement."

No, it's called an endorsement. Type ratings are very much abridged endorsements for pilots.

And that would be a Type Rating you're after, not an "endorsement." Endorsement is the act of putting pen to paper and conferring the authority on the licence.

Quite a number of years ago, one of my fiends took a 747 Type Rating Course in the USA and was flying one in the Mid-East a month later. The effort worked for him and he had several good gigs over the decades, but the concept drives some people wild. I suspect they believe that showing initiative backed by money is "jumping the que" and bad for the industry.

I suspect (I don't know) that avaitionvic is looking at maintenance courses, rather than flight training. And possibly even to send an employee or contractor on. (again, spectulation)

avaitionvic, if you are looking for ATOs that run B737NG courses (or any maintenance type training courses) here is a link to the TC website that lists approved training organizations (ATOs)

https://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/ ... nt-531.htm

It is supposed to be a current list but I know for a fact its not up to date.

Abridged... sure. I just looked up the technician training course for the plane I fly at work and it's about a week shorter than the course for pilots on the same type.

Nice try.
