Introduction
This intensive 2 Day course is specifically designed to focus on the needs of the Airport SMS Department to ensure an Effective, Efficient, and Reliable Safety Management System.
Periodically we should consider our Safety Management Systems in a more Holistic way to consider whether it is delivering the optimum benefit for our organization.
This 2-day course aims to provide a comprehensive review of the overall effectiveness of our SMS. Delegates will undertake an overall review of SMS best practices and together with the regulatory-driven obligations will perform a GAP analysis against their own organization system
The course is highly participative and assumes prior knowledge of SMS requirements and objectives.
