DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University is recognized as one of the global leaders in aerospace and aviation education. Professional Education at Embry-Riddle builds on this success by providing year-round open-enrollment short courses and by creating customized education and training on–site to meet the needs of aviation business professionals.

The Pro–Ed staff begins with existing courses, then works with a business to select complementary management topics, instructors and content experts focused on the challenges of the organization.

In the past few months several national and international organizations have selected Embry-Riddle as their training provider for specialized education:

Airport Authority Hong Kong arranged an on–site Aviation Safety Management System (SMS) Short-Course for 30 delegates from their organization including airfield staff members.

Cyient, a provider of engineering, manufacturing, geospatial, network, and operations management services in Melbourne, Fla. offered an Embry-Riddle System Safety Engineering and Certification short-course to its staff.
