Webinars To Be Recorded, Offered Online
The National Air Transportation Association (NATA) is
coordinating some of its major conferences and seminars with other
leading industry events in 2010 to answer the needs of the aviation
business community and provide added value and convenience. Free
member update webinars and "for fee" training webinars are also
among the new educational initiatives to be included in next year's
program.
"A recent survey revealed that NATA members place higher value on
training and educational programs in a down economy, but require
more convenient access to these events due to budget and staffing
constraints," said NATA President James K. Coyne. "A changed and
challenging business climate demands new thinking in association
programming, a demand that we are addressing through innovative and
creative means."
NATA kicks off 2010 with an FBO Leadership Conference (January
25-26) in coordination with the National Business Aviation
Association's Schedulers & Dispatchers Conference in San
Antonio, TX. In March, NATA hosts its annual Spring Training Week
of seminars (March 15-17) in conjunction with the Aviation Industry
Expo in Vegas. Next year, NATA continues its strong partnership
with AOPA in the General Aviation Serves America campaign hosting
Town Hall meetings and other local events to educate politicians
and the public at large about the importance of general aviation to
communities and the national economy.

NATA offers webinars as part of 2010 event programming. The NATA
Government and Industry Affairs Team led by Eric Byer and including
issues experts such as Jacqueline Rosser, Russ Lawton, Kristen
Moore and Mike France take turns hosting free monthly issue updates
for members. These sessions will be recorded and provided online
for the accessibility of all members. NATA and NATA's Safety 1st
team are also coordinating a series of modestly priced webinars to
supplement on-site seminars with compact, efficient and convenient
sessions on topics such as customer service, environmental
compliance, human resource management, and more.
"NATA's goal is not only to fulfill, but to exceed the need for
training and career and business development education in our
industry in the most convenient and cost effective manner. These
ideas are part of a new path toward success that we are asking our
members and industry participants to join us on in 2010," Coyne
said.
