Aeronautical knowledge for safety (AK4S)

You want to make sure your staff is equipped with all the aeronautical knowledge they need to support safety in your company and help build your case for safety excellence with your insurance broker at the time of renewal. But it is difficult and expensive to continuously train new staff members at both operational and mid-management levels on crucial safety knowledge and skills. This course takes away some of the pain for employers of onboarding new staff and will help you retain staff too.

This course provides a solid appreciation of the risks and safety components related to the daily working environment at the airport. The course assists employers with affordable induction training, motivates staff and gives them both an outline for further professional development opportunities. It was developed by industry experts from the Netherlands and Zambia and tested by new and experienced staff in four African countries.

The blended learning course consists of curated videos that are watched on demand over a six-week period. The course has online classroom sessions that participants have to attend. In those online classroom sessions, questions can be asked by participants and discussions aboutt he course topics will take place. The course ends with an online, live oral assessment in which participants are assessed for their knowledge and skills.
