Pact Will Enhance SMS Training And Availability, Companies
Say
Baldwin Aviation, which offers online web-based safety
management (SMS) and FDM programs for flight organizations, and
TrainingPort.net, an online company which provides customized and
comprehensive instructional programs and record keeping, have
announced that they have signed an agreement to enhance the content
and delivery of IS-BAO compliant Safety Management training to
their customers.
Scheduled for launch at the NBAA's 62nd Annual Meeting &
Convention in Orlando, Florida, next week, the jointly developed
programs will feature training content focused on a variety of
business aviation-related topics, including Safety Management
presented by Dr. David Huntzinger, vice president of Safety and
Security for Baldwin Aviation, Fatigue Management developed and
presented by Dr. Mark Rosekind, president and chief scientist of
Alertness Solutions, and Meteorology, offered by Dr. Karsten Shein,
climatologist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration's (NOAA's) National Climatic Data Center. The
subject matter will be delivered throughout the year, in 15-minute
long segments online which will allow the trainees to actively
participate while maintaining their working schedules.
TrainingPort.net's system will automatically maintain audit ready
records which meet the requirements for IS-BAO registration, as
well.
"This arrangement allows us to incorporate Baldwin Aviation's
hands-on, customized Safety Management training into easily
available, concise segments that can be accessed by our customers
on their schedules and in manageable portions that allow them to
have the benefit of training tailored to their needs without having
to interrupt their business routines for extended periods. It
also permits us to offer the valuable and expert instruction of
leading authorities in their fields like Dr. Rosekind and Dr.
Shein. This is a 'win-win' for our customers and another
example of how Baldwin Aviation continues to take advantage of
technology to serve their needs," said Don Baldwin, president and
CEO of Baldwin Aviation.
"The regulatory trend within business aviation is mandating
safety management programs. By partnering with Baldwin
Aviation, we're able to deliver industry leading content and help
our mutual customers mitigate risk. We're excited to be able
to offer them this added value," added Scott Macpherson, president
of TrainingPort.net.
