AVIAA nets online training partner
The addition of TrainingPort.net to AVIAA's network gives its members access to a variety of short online lessons; enhanced digital learning for pilots, dispatchers, ground handlers, technicians and cabin crew.

Utah-headquartered group purchasing organisation AVIAA has added TrainingPort.net as another strategic partner to its membership. A leading online training provider for nearly 14 years, TrainingPort.net will provide AVIAA members with a wide variety of 15 minute online lessons. Trainees can access these on any device anywhere in the world.

“Our commitment to help train and make our aviation community safer is always a priority, and our partnership with TrainingPort.net will allow AVIAA to offer our clients enhanced digital learning for pilots, dispatchers, ground handlers, maintenance technicians and cabin crew,” says chief business development officer Matthew Smith. “This is another opportunity for our members to benefit from AVIAA's global network, offering economies of scale and savings on insurance and crew training.”

TrainingPort.net's lessons are based on concise learning and allow employees to focus on their jobs while retaining information easily accessed via iPad, laptop or cell phone. Both companies are fully vested in their clients' and partners' success, and will offer all AVIAA members a 10 per cent discount on these training services.

Training Port senior sales manager for the US Brian Laird adds: “This seamlessly links with our ongoing passion to partner with and invest in our clients' long-term success. AVIAA is a trusted organisation that provides unparalleled value to its well-established membership base, and we believe pairing that value with TrainingPort's high-end suite of training and services will provide AVIAA members with the opportunity to vastly upgrade their online training experience which ultimately enhances their overall operation and safety.”
