‘What does the sustainable-aviation agenda mean for my company? What do we need to understand, what changes will we have to plan for, and what opportunities may there be?’ These are the kinds of questions with which airlines, airports and stakeholders all through the aviation value chain are struggling.
Airbus training subsidiary AirBusiness Academy, which already offers a wide range of in-person and online aerospace-related training courses to airlines, airports, aviation authorities and suppliers, recently won an award for its new Civil Aviation Carbon Neutrality open course, designed to introduce participants, typically middle and senior managers in aviation-related companies, to the context of aviation and climate change, the challenge aviation faces to meet its stated goal of net-zero by 2050, the levers for reducing emissions, and the issues around sustainability communications.
Demand for the course is growing as more and more companies realise they need to familiarise their staff with this new strategic environment.
