iviation has released
two, i-Learn interactive computer-based learning (CBL) courses for
corporate, charter and commercial flight operations. The first two
courses address human-factors/ crew resource management (CRM) and
aircraft icing.
“These are critical areas of safety that flight operations
need,” said David Perdue, CEO of iviation.
“There’s a tremendous demand for human-factors/CRM and
aircraft icing training as well as the other courses. “Our
i-Learn CBL courses are perfect for all size flight and charter
operations, which have a difficult time scheduling downtime. This
is an effective and inexpensive alternative to real-time training,
or for those flight departments who do not engage in any type of
training. However, we will still continue to perform our on-site
human-factors/CRM training for Fortune companies’ in-house
flight departments.”
By the end of 2007, iviation will release more than 40 i-Learn
courses. Additionally, Perdue said that the courses will help CEOs
and flight department managers determine what a pilot’s
knowledge level really is.
“Any pilot is
capable of flying from point A to point B,” Perdue (pictured

testing score system: comparisons to other pilots in the same
department, pilots from other companies and average testing scores
from all pilots in the U.S. This should be given to every applicant
being considered for employment. i-Learn courses not only save
customers money on training and improve scheduling, but they also
keep industry professionals informed with the latest
information.”
In the near future, more i-Learn courses will apply to pilots,
mechanics, line personnel, and management. Additionally, courses
will address the requirements of FAR 135.293 and other regulations
governing the air ambulance industry. iviation also customizes
courses and reporting systems for clients, including testing for
their operations, policies, procedures and other internal
manuals.
