Overview

About this programme

The Foundation in Aviation Management introduces you to the basics of the aviation industry, covering airline and airport operations, safety, security and customer service. It builds foundational knowledge of the aviation sector over three months and prepares you for further studies or entry-level roles in aviation and travel-related fields.

It is designed to be taken the moment you finish school. You need to have completed your G.C.E. Ordinary Level examinations, but any result is accepted. Most students use it to decide whether aviation is right for them before committing to the twelve-month diploma.
