They're Now Certified Aviation Managers
The NBAA says nine individuals have
successfully passed the Certified Aviation Manager (CAM)
Examination, administered October 11 in Las Vegas, NV. Through the
certification process, NBAA and the Certified Aviation Manager
Governing Board (CAMGB) say they're trying to raise the level of
professionalism and quality of management within flight
departments.
The CAMGB recognizes the newest Certified Aviation Managers:
- Curtis L. Christensen, Bunn-O-Matic Corp., Chatham, IL
- John Flanagan, Dow Chemical Co., Midland, MI
- Alexander Lake, Armstrong World Industries, Lititz, PA
- Richard Miller, Merck & Co., West Trenton, NJ
- Michael Ott, One Putt Aviation, La Quinta, CA
- Michael S. Pape, Boise Cascade Corp., Boise, ID
- Chris Poupard, ConAgra Foods, Inc., Upland, CA
- Scott Rose, Frito-Lay, Addison, TX
- Kenneth Seals, AvJet Corp., Burbank, CA
"NBAA congratulates these CAMs on their achievement," said NBAA
President and CEO Ed Bolen. "Through the successful completion of
the certification process, these individuals have proven their
knowledge and management skills to both their employers and the
business aviation community."
These individuals have earned the official title of Certified
Aviation Manager and may use that designation when officially
listing their name. They also have earned industry recognition of
their experience and knowledge within business aviation.
To prepare for the CAM designation,
they met or exceeded minimum qualifications based upon experience,
training and education. They completed both a formal application
process and the CAM Exam offered on October 11 in conjunction with
the NBAA 57th Annual Meeting & Convention in Las Vegas.
With these nine additions, a total of 46 individuals have passed
the exam and are designated as CAMs. Past successes indicate a
passing rate of 76 percent of the candidates who have completed the
exam.
Upcoming CAM Exams will be administered on the following
dates:
- March 3, 2005, in Miami, FL, in conjunction with the NBAA
Leadership Conference
- April 14, 2005, in Colorado Springs, CO, in conjunction with
the NBAA Maintenance Management Conference
- November 14, 2005, in New Orleans, LA, in conjunction with the
NBAA 58th Annual Meeting & Convention
To qualify for the exam, completed applications must be received
by NBAA 45 days before the scheduled examination date. For example,
to qualify to take the March 3 exam, NBAA must receive the
application by January 17.
