SAAA e-Learning Programme

We understand the importance of Time. Time during learning does no necessarily need to take place in the form of classroom-based training. eLearning is one way that has completely transformed the way in which learning is imparted. it makes learning simpler, easier and more effective at individual’s own pace and timing.

SAAA’s upcoming Air Cargo e-Learning Program consists of:

1. Introduction to the Air Cargo Business (20 mins)
2. ULD operations (60-90 mins)
3. Cargo Handling (90 mins)

These training modules are self-paced and learning is available 24/7. The participants are not bound to a specific time to physically attend classes. Competencies can be updated per demand.

SAAA has chosen to partner with Airport College International, who is a strategic partner of IATA. AirportCollege.com is a complete online training service for airlines, airport ground handling agents and logistics and has been an active  training academy for Europe market, particularly Finland.
