Convenient Online Course

As a manager or employee of an aviation business where there is access to General Aviation (GA) or Business Aviation (BA) aircraft, you are obligated to ensure operation to the TSA 's security guidelines. This not only protects against terrorist use of aviation assets (yours and your clients'), but also helps reduce other forms of business damage / loss (vandalism, theft, etc.) and legal liability.

Do not assume that security is the sole responsibility of airport operations or the TSA itself! Anyone who has or controls access to aircraft shares this responsibility.

Here's a simple, effective way to make sure that your aviation business understands the security guidelines and gives you the tools to easily implement proper security at your business.

By having your staff take this online course, you will have DOCUMENTED proof that you provided appropriate training.

It's quick, easy, and can be done at a convenient time.

About the TSA GA Security Guidelines

The U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has assembled a security guideline for General & Business Aviation with the help of many interested parties in an effort to increase homeland security.

Although FBO’s, 135 Operators, Corporate Operators, and others are expected to conform to the guidelines, many may be unfamiliar with the specifics.

This course eliminates the guesswork by utilizing the "Security Guidelines for General Aviation Airports" to ensure that all topics the TSA wishes to emphasize are covered.

The course covers many common sense security issues and explores areas which might not be commonly addressed.
