During your training, you will spend time working in each of the classic business areas, such as human resources, procurement and accounting. This also includes operational areas such as air traffic management, staff scheduling or flight route planning.

Here, you will learn about special flight-related topics, such as calculating air navigation services charges. This makes your training particularly varied and exciting.
