Recently,
Ken's accreditation as a Master CFI
(Certificated Flight Instructor) was
renewed by Master Instructors LLC, the
international accrediting authority for
the Master Instructor designation as
well as the FAA-approved "Master
Instructor Program." He first earned
this national professional accreditation
in 2006, has held continuously since
then, and is one of only 78 worldwide to
earn the credential three times.
To help put these achievements in their
proper perspective, there are
approximately 93,000 CFIs in the United
States. Fewer than 700 of those aviation
educators have achieved that distinction
thus far. The last 15 national Flight
Instructors of the Year were Master CFIs
while Ken is one of only 32 Texas
teachers of flight to earn this
prestigious "Master" title In the words
of former FAA Administrator Marion
Blakey, "The Master Instructor
accreditation singles out the best that
the right seat has to offer."
The Master Instructor designation is a
national accreditation recognized by the
FAA. Candidates must demonstrate an
ongoing commitment to excellence,
professional growth, and service to the
aviation community, and must pass a
rigorous evaluation by a peer Board of
Review. The process parallels the
continuing education regimen used by
other professionals to enhance their
knowledge base while increasing their
professionalism. Designees are
recognized as outstanding aviation
educators for not only their excellence
in teaching, but for their engagement in
the continuous process of learning --
both their own, and their students'. The
designation must be renewed biennially
and significantly surpasses the FAA
requirements for renewal of the
candidate's flight instructor
certificate.
