DUBAI. U.A.E. 24th February 2015: The Centre of Aviation & Security Studies (CASS), the academic arm of Emirates Group Security and the Arab Air Carriers Organisation Regional Training Centre (AACO RTC), have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to extend two University Diploma programmes to the members of the Arab Air Carriers Organisation (AACO).
The University Diploma in Aviation Security Management and the University Diploma in Ground Handling are being inducted as part of AACO RTC’s training curriculum with its offices in Jordan and Egypt. These two courses are jointly developed by Edith Cowan University of Western Australia and Emirates Group Security.
“We believe these courses add to the educational and professional development opportunities available to those working in aviation, and ultimately help support the growth of the aviation industry in the MENA region” said Dr. Abdulla Al Hashimi, Divisional Senior Vice President of the Emirates Group Security.
“Aviation security has become a foremost priority, equal in its importance to safety. It is an honour and a privilege to collaborate with Emirates, one of the best airlines in the world and one of the most forward-looking companies in the field of aviation,” said Abdul Wahab Teffaha, Secretary General of AACO.
