The course provides the learner with a different perspective about aviation safety and how every action in aviation is a life-lesson. And there are a lot of life-lessons in aviation safety.
This presentation will empower the learner to understand that aviation safety is a core-value, and that hazard identification, hazard mitigation/elimination is not a job but a continuing adventure!
