As of July 1, IATA’s competency-based training method has been implemented. Companies in the air transport of dangerous goods must now start training their employees according to this CBTA method. This has some issues for them. Over the past period, we have informed our customers about this as best we can, with knowledge articles, newsletters and knowledge sessions. For people who want to know the ins and outs, we have now also put together a white paper. AND our course offerings are now completely CBTA-proof. So be sure to take a look<\/a>! <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

Other interpretation<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

IATA CBTA (Competency Based Training & Assessment) is the new training method for the transport of dangerous goods by air, which has just become mandatory in the Netherlands. This implementation will have the necessary impact for companies in this sector. Because being and staying compliant is of course necessary, but that has now taken on a different meaning. To tell our customers what this means for them, we held knowledge sessions on this new approach last month. They were very happy with<\/a> it!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

Competency-based training means training for the tasks and responsibilities that go with your job. In the training structure, the existing IATA DGR categories 1 through 12 are converted to function-based courses IATA 7.1 through 7.10. At Special Cargo, meanwhile, you can take all of these courses (except 7.8) as well:<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n
