Good to know

The training method IATA CBTA (competency-based training and assessment) has the following premise. The safe and efficient transportation of dangerous goods by air depends on competent personnel. This means that employees must be trained in the functions for which they are responsible - regardless of whether it is stated in the job description. This is best achieved through competency-based training and assessment (CBTA).
