Join our webinar: Smarter selection unlocks ATC training success
As the aviation industry braces for an unprecedented surge in demand for air traffic controllers, the pressure is mounting on Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs) to rethink how they recruit and select talent.
In this webinar, join Jonny Cooke and Philipp Zeitel from Airways International as they unpack the complex recruitment and selection challenges facing ANSPs, and explore the key factors contributing to low ATC training success rates.
Discover how the team’s proven selection approach is helping ANSPs to identify candidates with the core competencies linked to ATC success. With a 92% success rate at the Airways Training academy and 98% in on-the-job training over the past decade, these results highlight the effectiveness of a data-driven, evidence-based approach to candidate selection.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how your organisation can strengthen its ATC recruitment and selection outcomes, and be part of the solution to one of aviation’s most pressing workforce challenges.
