CDU - Trainair Plus

The ICAO TRAINAIR Programme was established to ensure higher training standards for aviation professionals. The civil aviation training needs are evolving rapidly and ICAO is responding by enhancing the TRAINAIR programme into TRAINAIRPLUS.

TRAINAIR PLUS is an ICAO programme that provides support for new and existing aviation training centers via technical expertise, resources, and quality oversight.  This results in a network of ICAO TRAINAIR PLUS Centres meeting the standards of the programme.


 The TRAINAIR PLUS programme’s objectives:
  • Streamline, and facilitate the implementation and the development of the TRAINAIR methodology used in Standardized Training Packages (STP) courses;
  • Coordinate and supply technical support for STP development courses;
  • Provide quality control throughout the STP development stage;
  • Operate an international STP sharing system and cooperative training network;
  • Oversee the certification of endorsed training centres.
The Unit was established at QNCATC in 1990, it aims to maintain quality of training at QNCATC and develop Standardized Training Packages (STPs) in accordance to TRAINAIR PLUS methodology.
