March 17, 2009
IBA launches training courses to inform the industry.

In response to current market conditions, the International Bureau of Aviation (IBA Group) has launched a programme of training courses specifically designed to help businesses cope and flourish in the difficult times ahead.

IBA is an aviation consulting firm providing advice, analysis, and training to the global aviation industry. Its staff has worked across a broad range of technical and commercial aviation issues over the past 20 years.

In order to educate and inform in these 'sink or swim' times, IBA has tailored its latest training programme to meet the requirements of a wide selection of aviation businesses. For banks, financiers, and lessors, IBA is offering a range of courses focusing on technical issues, asset management, inspections, audits and conditions. Regulatory courses also form a large part of the programme, with seminars covering continuing airworthiness management, safety management systems, EASA regulations and engineer licensing. IBA is also offering courses on different elements of aircraft maintenance, dangerous goods, security and first aid as well as a selection of theory and practical based courses specifically designed for cabin crew.

IBA is also able to design bespoke courses, customised to the individual needs of a specific organisation.
