He joined ICAO/TCB in 2001 after previously working for the World Bank, the Canadian Trade Commissioner Service and in the private and academia sectors.AFGHANISTAN: July 2016 marked the beginning of the implementation of a technical cooperation project aimed at building capacity in Afghanistan through the training of national personnel. The first phase of this project, funded by the United States, calls for training over 30 Fire Crash and Rescue Service personnel and over 40 Air Traffic Controllers. The training is conducted in an ICAO TRAINAIR PLUS accredited academy in India, supported logistically by UNOPS and coordinated through ICAO’s Technical Cooperation Bureau (TCB). Subsequent phases of this project will see more Afghan nationals benefit from similar training.The project serves as a powerful illustration of the virtues of close collaboration between different entities in the aviation community. This is how ICAO plays a pivotal role in the development of the skills and experience of aviation professionals. LATIN AMERICA: Another case of a successful capacity-building initiative is the partnership between TCB and Aeropuertos Españoles y Navegación Aérea (AENA) from Spain. For many years, under this technical cooperation project, seminars and workshops have been organized in Latin America covering a number of important topics. For example, one of the seminars held in Cartagena, Colombia last year dealt with “Development of Regional Airports”. Over 50 participants benefitted from this training activity. Professionals from the region are eligible to apply for fellowships to participate in these events. Moreover, AENA, in collaboration with TCB, has awarded a number of bursaries for professionals to undertake graduate level studies at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid in Spain.These are just two examples of TCB’s commitment to work with organizations around the world to promote training for aviation professionals worldwide. In fact, since its creation over 60 years ago, capacity-building and training have been pillars of TCB’s core activities when providing assistance to ICAO Member States. TCB offers many mechanisms and services that States can use to meet their capacity-building and training needs.FELLOWSHIPS: Through TCB, States can nominate nationals to undergo training through our Fellowships Programme. This way, selected candidates receive training in internationally recognized universities or training centres. States can nominate candidates through the Developing Countries Training Programme (DCTP), which is provided in partnership with internationally respected training centres in India, the Republic of Korea and Singapore. In the past four years, TCB has awarded over 2500 fellowships across the globe (including over 700 fellowships under the DCTP). Professionals who have benefited from this training have returned to their national authorities and contributed significantly to the development of their State’s air transport industry.

IN-COUNTRY TRAINING: TCB also facilitates training through capacity-building projects that may include the deployment of instructors to conduct seminars and workshops, or to provide on-the-job training. Through capacity-building projects of this kind, over 5000 personnel have received in-country training. Many of these projects aim to help States remedy deficiencies related to their safety and security oversight responsibilities.In addition to fellowships and capacity-building initiatives, training is provided by equipment suppliers for goods procured through TCB. TCB also manages the Assad Kotaite Fellowship Fund, which awards bursaries to selected graduate students around the world. TAILORED SOLUTIONS: TCB collaborates closely with ICAO’s Global Aviation Training (GAT) Office to ensure that State training needs are effectively met. States are welcome to approach GAT and TCB to propose projects to assist their Aviation Training Organizations (ATOs) to become part of ICAO’s TRAINAIR PLUS network.States are encouraged to contact ICAO for assistance in addressing their training requirements.
