SriLankan Aviation College, the training arm of SriLankan Airlines, has trailblazed its way to becoming an IATA Authorized Training Center (ATC) Top Performer for 2024– an honour reserved for only the most outstanding IATA (International Air Transport Association) training institutions worldwide.
This achievement advances SriLankan Aviation College to IATA’s Preferred ATC category, proving once again its commitment to excellence in developing talent for the travel trade on a global scale.
Richard Nuttall, Chief Executive Officer of SriLankan Airlines, commented on the achievement, stating, “We are truly humbled to be recognised as a top performing IATA Authorized Training Center. It speaks volumes about how much effort the college puts into offering high quality job-ready programmes led by top-tier instructors, blending real-world knowledge and practical sessions.
The SriLankan Aviation College has made remarkable progress over the past two years, and with the aviation industry fully returning to pre-pandemic levels last year, we are both ready and excited to meet the growing global demand for aviation professionals.”
Over the years, SriLankan Aviation College has introduced some of the most sought-after IATA programmes to Sri Lanka, including the IATA Foundation in Travel and Tourism Diploma; IATA Cargo Introductory Course; and the IATA Airline Cabin Crew course, among many others.
