The International Air Cargo Association (TIACA) has launched a platform – Air Cargo Training Library, aimed at finding available training solutions throughout the industry.
The Air Cargo Training Library provides a convenient global repository for training courses from many different training providers. The listings will be submitted by members and partner educational institutions that offer training on technology, sustainability, safety and security, management, logistics, live animals, industry knowledge, global trade, dangerous goods and air cargo.
The platform is open access and available to all industry stakeholders that want to view the training courses available. Members have the opportunity to list several training courses free of charge; while non-members will pay a small fee to list their courses.
“We are very excited to launch this platform as we see that it links directly with our Sustainability Roadmap and continues to drive forward a sustainable future. The platform promotes quality education and decent work that in turn is tied to economic growth. We look forward to watching this library expand,” said Steven Polmans, Chairman, TIACA.
“Today’s air cargo industry is complex with ever changing customer expectations, regulatory requirements and evolving industry standards. High quality training is a key enabler to keep staff engaged, empowered and motivated to build a great career within the industry. The problem is where to find the training and that is where the Air Cargo Training Library comes in. It is a convenient search tool that lists training for the industry. We invite members and training partners to submit their courses to the portal,” noted Glyn Hughes, Director General, TIACA.
By fostering an environment of continuous learning and development, TIACA is laying the groundwork for a more sustainable, efficient, and resilient air cargo industry. The platform’s easy-to-use search tool further underscores TIACA’s commitment to accessibility and inclusivity, ensuring that individuals at every level of the industry have the opportunity to advance their careers and contribute to the sector’s overall growth. As the TIACA platform continues to evolve and expand, it promises to play a crucial role in shaping the future of air cargo, empowering professionals around the globe with the capability, tools and knowledge necessary to thrive in an ever-changing landscape.
As the air cargo industry continues to navigate the challenges of the 21st century, the Air Cargo Training Library stands as a testament to TIACA’s dedication to advancing the air cargo industry through education and collaboration. Such initiatives are only poised to bolster the industry’s ongoing sustainability efforts and support holistic development, thus contributing to economic growth within the sector .
