Advanced Airport Safety Operations School

May 24-27, 2011   Halifax, Nova Scotia 

The International Association of Airport Executives Canada (IAAE Canada) is pleased to present a four day Training Program for Airport operations, safety and risk management, security, planners, property, financial, legal and all other concerned administrative personnel on May 24-27, 2011, at the Halifax Airport.

This workshop is designed for individuals who have either attended an earlier Basic Airport Safety & Operations School (B/ASOS) or those who have at least two years of experience in airport management or operations. While the B/ASOS deals with technical knowledge, plans and procedures, the Advanced ASOS focuses on application of the technical knowledge, interactions with others, evaluation exercises and sessions and management techniques. It will be of benefit to experienced airport operational staff with supervisory responsibilities, including "small airport" managers, new managers/supervisors, and operations or maintenance personnel at "mid size" or "international" airports. The workshop would be of interest to experienced management personnel as a refresher and information session.

 The fee for this training is $700 + tax for Non-Members and discounted to $600 +tax for Members.
