IATA, said it had, bestowed the top-ten placing in “recognition of an outstanding contribution by the ATC (authorised training centre) in developing human capital for tomorrow’s air transport industry.”

The Oman Air Training Centre delivers training to the airline’s staff and members of the public, with the aim of continuously enhancing standards of quality and safety in all areas of civil aviation. The centre runs a range of courses for which accreditation has been granted by the Oman Civil Aviation Authority, IATA, Swiss Air and Lufthansa.

Abdulaziz Alraisi, Oman Air’s chief officer management affairs said: “We are delighted that Oman Air has been recognised by IATA in this way, which confirms the high standards of our training and staff development. We look forward to consolidating our role as a global leader in aviation training and to promoting business excellence, not just within Oman but in the entire region.”
