Introduction
The aviation industry is challenged by a difficult economic environment, changing demographics and new technologies with far-reaching potential. States are also facing similar situations with respect to human development and resource planning for the conduct of safety oversight activities. This situation is especially critical as a large contingent of the current generation of aviation professionals will retire, access to affordable training and education is increasingly problematic, and aviation competes with other industry sectors for attracting highly skilled professionals.
In this context, it becomes urgent to review existing training practices and propose new and innovative solutions for the recruitment, education, training and retention of the next generation of aviation professionals.
