Iran Ready to Train Foreign Air Traffic Controllers

Iran is ready to offer standard training courses on working with radars to the air traffic controllers from other countries, Ebrahim Shoushtari, Deputy CEO for Aeronautical Operations at Iran Airports Company (IAC) announced on Sunday.

“With the efforts of the domestic experts in this field, IAC, for the first time, has held international training courses on working with radars for 30 Syrian air traffic controllers. The courses fully comply with the standards of International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO),” Shoushtari stated.
He also said that the mentioned courses are being held in four groups, and each course will last for a week.

By holding the courses since 10 years ago , IAC has saved a large sum of money and even earn some money by training air traffic controllers from other countries.

Despite three decades of western sections against Iran, the Islamic Republic has made great achievements in the area of aviation and has attained self-sufficiency in producing essential military equipment and systems.
