Description

Aviation security needs to be understood by all those involved in the operational requirements of civil aviation. Past disasters have provided appalling lessons that any departure from strict, internationally accepted procedures creates an "opportunity" for those intent on acts of unlawful interference. The course Aviation and Security deals with the broad issue of security appreciation for professionals and managers, a perspective on the human and organisational dimensions of aviation security, an explicit understanding of responsibilities, the mechanism for implementation, and the ability to determine and report on security events. This course is designed for a wide cross-section of professionals in the aviation, transport and affiliated industries.
