SATS clinches exclusive deal for ground operations training in 10 Asian countries

It has been accredited by the IATA.

SATS has been awarded International Air Transport Association (IATA) accreditation for Ramp Services training. It is the first firm worldwide to be accredited for ground operations training.

With this recognition, SATS is now an Authorized Training Center (ATC) with exclusive rights to train ground handlers in 10 countries regionally.

The newly accredited programme is scheduled to begin in March 2017. SATS will be the exclusive IATA training provider to ground handlers in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Brunei and Myanmar. It is also a non-exclusive training provider for India.

Separately, SATS has also rolled out Smart Watches into its technical ramp operations.

With the new IoT solution, technical ramp handling personnel can get their work instructions in a more timely and safe manner, boosting efficiency and allowing SATS to reallocate resources for greater productivity.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
