With the number of people traveling to, from or within India expected to treble to 520 million by 2037, the demand for trained aviation professionals will continue to grow. Appointing Bird Academy as an IATA Regional Training Partner means that we are able to better support India\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s talent needs by offering IATA courses that were previously unavailable. We look forward to a successful partnership with the Bird Academy to fulfil India\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s training requirements,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Clifford.<br \/>\nThe partnership will allow Bird Academy to host training by IATA that cover the full spectrum of the industry. Some of the key IATA trainings initially offered in New Delhi will include Passenger Assessment and Travel Document Checks, Document Control Systems, Safety Management Systems (SMS) for Airlines, and Passenger Fares and Ticketing.<br \/>\nRegarded as a benchmark in the aviation industry, these trainings are internationally recognized and have a strong demand world-over.
