LATEST TECHNOLOGY
As aviation training leaders look to the future, the global demand for skilled flight deck crew needs to be satisfied; whilst keeping in line with the latest technologies and competencies. READ MORE
Technology has become an integral part of our daily lives – from how we communicate to how we learn. Training for aviation professionals is no exception. As aviation training leaders look to the future, the global demand for skilled flight deck crew needs to be satisfied; whilst keeping in line with the latest technologies and competencies.
There is an industry-wide initiative to address training requirements so that our industry remains safe, secure, efficient, cost-effective and environmentally sustainable. Therefore the main role of aviation training providers, like PTC Aviation, is to ensure that current aviation professionals meet these requirements and improve their knowledge and skills in our fast-changing industry.
Training providers must also ensure that younger generations are enticed by careers in aviation, and that the training required to become skilled flight crew members is easily accessible and in line with the latest technologies and methodologies.
The only way this can be reliably achieved is to ensure that training is effective and efficient; whilst still allowing for the rapid transfer of the required knowledge, skills and aptitudes from aviation professionals and subject matter experts alike.
Furthermore, training must be easily accessible and flexible, while providing a reasonable return on investment.
PTC Aviation understands this reality and, as part of our vision to be industry leaders, we have chosen to integrate leading-edge technologies in the development and delivery of our courses to enhance our global reach and facilitate access to aviation knowledge.
