Munich AirportAcademy and Istanbul Airport's IGA Academy have signed a Memorandum of Understanding, and aim to jointly develop innovative training programmes
The collaboration will enable both academies to meet the changing needs of the aviation industry and provide students with a more comprehensive learning experience. Jointly developed programmes will be tailored to the current and future needs of the industry. Regular meetings between the academies will promote ongoing dialogue and the exchange of best practices in training to continuously improve the quality of training.
A key element of the agreement is the exchange of training courses and instructors. This will allow students to benefit from a wider range of courses and a more diverse teaching approach, enriching their education and preparing them optimally for the challenges of the job market.
In addition, the IGA Academy and Munich AirportAcademy will undertake joint marketing and promotional activities.
“By uniting our strengths, we aim to create innovative learning programmes that not only meet the industry's evolving needs but also set new benchmarks in education. Together, we will empower the next generation of aviation professionals, ensuring they are equipped with the skills and knowledge to uphold the highest standards in this dynamic field,” said Alexander Hoemer, head of Munich AirportAcademy.
His sentiments were echoed by Dr Tunç Cavcav, head of İGA Academy, who said: “This agreement underscores the value of international partnerships in fostering operational excellence and advancing knowledge-sharing across the global aviation landscape. In an industry where collaboration is far more vital than competition, cross-border cooperation in aviation training is essential.”
