Safety Management System in Aviation – SMS
This workshop provides a comprehensive hands-on experience with the SMS concept, so delegates from Air Operations, Training Organizations, Maintenance and Continuing Airworthiness Organizations, in addition to those from Aerodromes, Air Navigation Service Providers and ATC Services can better comprehend it. It covers State Safety Programs, Service Providers’ Safety Management Systems, Hazard Identification, and more, by using case-based studies that apply a practical aspect to the theory learned.
