Background
The company has been founded by 3 enthusiast professionals with dual expertise in air transport and new technologies industries. For several years, they noted that training quality and efficiency was not in phase with market needs due to old-fashioned methods and the low use of new technologies, resulting in poor involvement of learners.
They decided to address the issue and following a proven model of large industrial groups, they created breakthrough learning processes, infused with the latest knowledge in education methodology, and powered by advanced technologies.

Trainers & Classes
All our trainers are seasoned professionals with extensive field experience in their respective domains. Their primary focus is to make sure every student will be a successful one. They use a dynamic and interactive approach to teaching and rely on engaging digital presentations to achieve their goal. Our premises are fully equipped with classrooms and virtual training rooms, fitted with the latest learning equipment and technologies.
Access to ramp area
Practice training is an important part of airport education, but is often complicated, presents risks and depends on ramp on-going operations. This is why we created K.A.V.E, the KPASS AIRPORT Virtual Experience. A simulator reproducing real life details, and fully configurable for a wide range of weather issues and operational scenario. The solution is available at all times and offers the same results with more flexibility and no safety or security issues. When clients have ramp access, we can also deliver field practice training on-demand.
