The Professional Certificate in Air Transportation Principles and Policy provides professionals with a solid foundation of knowledge about the nexus of government policy and the operating environment of civil aviation. This program is offered jointly by Carleton University’s School of Public Policy and Administration, through its Transportation Policy Innovation Centre, and the International Air Transport Association (IATA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Become a policy-savvy expert who truly understands how the air transport industry functions. If you work in the public sector, this certificate will help you hone your public policy development skills as you gain insight into the workings of this important economic sector. On the other hand, if you work in the private sector, you will take your knowledge of your sector of employment to a higher level while you learn how to predict, influence, and implement the regulatory framework that affects every facet of civil aviation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
