flight department leaders.

PDP Courses are available to flight department personnel through
a variety of convenient and flexible delivery methods. Established
training organizations and educational nstitutions provide
management training courses in several different media, including
Internet courses, video courses and seminars. PDP participation has
several benefits for students, including preparing students to take
the NBAA Certified Aviation Manager (CAM) Examination and to become
a CAM.
The above courses are among the first to be offered since the
PDP Objectives were revised and updated in November 2004. The new
objectives, which total 30, cover the following five modules:
leadership, personnel management, operations, technical and
facilities services, and business management.
