Dispatch Courses
1 Week Training Course (40 hrs)
This 1-week course contains a brief but challenging training-program in accordance with the training recommendations for Flight Operations Officers as laid down in ICAO doc. 7192- AN/857 Part D-3 and the requirements established by IOSA standards.
In order to capture above mentioned requirements and recommendations ASISTIM set up a moduled recurrent training solution that will cover the complete syllabus within the requested three years. The degree of expertise for this course is tailored to the needs of airline staff working in operations control and is derived from the daily experience in our own Dispatch Center.
Some subjects have been shortened to focus on others considered more relevant for everyday business in airline operations.
