Introduced at APATS 2024, the "Cadet to Chief" (C2C) programme is an innovative approach to pilot training and leadership development within Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG). It was designed to bridge the gap between technical flight training and crucial corporate leadership competencies, fostering long-term success for cadet pilots.
