Pipistrel has made all of its computer-based training courses free of charge and online for anyone to use for three months.
“We hope this will motivate non-flying pilots as well as student pilots and flight instructors to stay connected to their passion and learn more every day,” said the Slovenian company.
“Anybody, whether student pilot, pilot, flight instructor or aviation enthusiast, flying clubs, flight schools can apply and join the online course free-of-charge for a period of three months, from April 2020 until end of June 2020.
“This unique offer is available worldwide to all, including to non-pilots who are interested in aviation.”
The online courses will help to refresh and revise the theoretical knowledge required to fly and learn the specifics about modern Pipistrel aircraft series, including the Alpha Electro electric aircraft.
Normally the online course fee is €147.30 for 14 days or €247.30 for a permanent subscription. Courses can be accessed from anywhere in the world by laptop, tablet or mobile phone.

As an incentive, anyone who successfully finishes an online training course will receive a voucher for a free demo flight in a Pipistrel aircraft.

Great initiative.
Tried to enroll. Asked me for an “Enrollment Key” with no explanation of how you get one.
You have to create an account first – there’s a link in the navigation bar and also in the top right corner.
I created an account first but still asking for the ‘enrollment key’ – please advise
