FlightSafety Tailors New Program for Mx Managers

FlightSafety International has developed an aviation maintenance management program tailored for current and future maintenance department managers. The program is designed to enhance skills and address challenges and trends that are identified by maintenance department leaders, instructors, and other experts, FlightSafety said. 

Offered at FlightSafety’s Training Center in Dallas, the three-day program includes modules on leadership qualities, foundations of management, service culture, communications, accountability and delegation, finance, and team building, among other subjects.

The program expands upon FlightSafety’s suite of programs aimed at maintenance professionals and technicians. The company also offers professional-development courses through its Master Technician program that are designed to provide aircraft maintenance personnel with the skills needed to interact effectively with customers, managers, and coworkers. The program further helps prepare technicians for additional responsibilities or management roles. More than 3,000 people have become FlightSafety Master Technicians.
