CAA Consultancy and Training

The CAA has two areas of expertise engaged in consultancy:

International Services is the Consultancy and Training Department of the UK Civil Aviation Authority. It concentrates its consultancy and support services on safety and regulation issues, working closely with clients to support their work across the complete spectrum of safety regulation.

Specialists, backed up by the full resources of the CAA, can provide direct assistance, training and technical support or simply advice to an administration in order for it to develop its own procedures and practices. Visit the International Services web pages.

International Services run international training courses for aviation authorities and industry.  Dates for UK courses are published, but courses can also be run in-country and regionally.
