How to join us
The team is open to join for all University of Waterloo students. We encourage everyone, regardless of skill level or exposure to aviation, to join the team and contribute to our various technical programs.
We ask for our team members to complete an introductory task when first joining the team. These bootcamps are designed to teach you about the basic technical skills required to contribute to the team and are designed for a first year student to take approximately 3 to 4 hours to complete. We encourage new members to ask questions throughout their bootcamp as it will give you an insight into our mentorship culture – We're happy to help you through it!
