Aerodrome Certification & Regulatory Obligations – 5 Days

Introduction

With the continuous growth in traffic, airports need to be flexible, scalable and accommodating to facilitate development and to cope with organic growth.

It is necessary for Aerodromes to have in place all necessary infrastructure to ensure efficient operations of all airport business processes and systems whilst delivering safety and security to the highest possible levels.

Based on compliance with ICAO Annex 14 and EU Regulation No. 139/2014 (Aerodromes) – relating to the Certification and Oversight of Aerodromes.

The course focuses on the Fundamental Requirements and Administrative Procedures related to management development and oversight of Aerodromes.

Considering the oversight processes required related for both initial certification as well as ongoing oversight and focusing on both Management Techniques to ensure effective Quality Control as well as independent Quality Assurance.

The Course leans heavily on the need to ensure a risk-based approach to certification management and includes oversight activities and addresses the process whereby we will develop an integrated management system and supports a detailed understanding of the various challenges and solutions available.

Numerous examples are drawn to illustrate best practice.

It is necessary for stakeholders and other leaders to develop measurable strategic objectives and effective aerodrome planning requires attention to detail, together with a deep understanding of the daily obligations including the various challenges whilst maintaining focus on medium and long-term objectives.
