Studied from the beginning of 2019 to the summer of 2020 (including a 3 month break due to covid).
 

Course structure was favourable vs UK schools and I particularly liked being on the campus rather than trying to find accommodation elsewhere. Being in the one place for the duration of the entire course was also something that I wanted.
 

Theory was very good in terms of the books provided. Instructors varied from excellent to okay. Extra support available when asked.
 

Flying side was good. Scheduling wasn't the best when I began but towards the end it changed and was far better. It went from instructors booking the flights to the head of training booking the flights. Instructors again varied. I had around 8 instructors during my flight training, some very keen to help and others (that have subsequently left) were not very helpful.
 

In terms of employment, I am now with Ryanair having completed the cadet scheme. The graduation help was somewhat nonexistent (but due to covid this was understandable) but I now believe that it is improving and opportunities are being shared by fte with airline partners
