\n IATA Partners with Carleton University Offering Academic Program to Bridge Gap between Aviation Industry and Policy Makers\n <\/h1>\n \n \n <\/header>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n

French Version Follows<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) is partnering with Carleton University\u2019s School of Public Policy and Administration (SPPA)<\/a> in Ottawa, Canada, to launch the Professional Certificate in Air Transport Principles and Policy<\/a>. The online, instructor-led program is aimed at both public policy makers and aviation professionals and will be delivered through the school\u2019s Transportation Policy and Innovation Centre (TPIC)<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The objective is to provide aviation and public sector professionals with a better understanding of the complexity of both the air transport sector and the public policy-making process. With this enhanced knowledge, aviation professionals will gain important insights into government policy-making, while public sector employees will obtain greater clarity into how the aviation industry operates and how their decisions affect this important sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAchieving a better understanding between the public and private sector is essential to ensuring sustainable operations in a sector as complex as aviation, especially in a time of crisis. This is one of the key take-aways as we continue to rebuild from the effects which COVID-19 related border closures and travel restrictions have had on aviation, a sector which is an integral part of the global supply chain. Partnering with Carleton University enables us to offer an academic solution to improve comprehension and collaboration between policy makers and the aviation industry, allowing to be better prepared for future challenges, both in Canada and across the globe,\u201d said Frederic Leger, IATA\u2019s Senior Vice President for Commercial Products and Services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis partnership will raise the visibility and attractiveness of air transport as a subject of academic study and field of work, leading to a greater outflow of knowledgeable professionals into government and industry,\u201d said Brenda O\u2019Neill, Dean of Carleton University\u2019s Faculty of Public Affairs. \u201cThis reflects the growing leadership of Carleton\u2019s School of Public Policy and Administration in the field of public policy and governance in Canada and abroad.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The program will focus on the business practices and economic impact of the air transport industry, and on the nature and complexity of the public policy-making process as it relates to the sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGovernments sometimes formulate policy with incomplete information about the economic imperatives facing this industry\u201d, said Dr. Marc Rioux, who leads the TPIC after a career at Transport Canada. For their part, private sector participants sometimes under-estimate the complexity of public policy-making. The program intends to close this knowledge gap.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The partnership combines IATA\u2019s global reach with one of Canada\u2019s leading academic institutions. It is targeted at public sector and air transportation professionals from around the world, enhancing workforce skills to meet the aviation industry\u2019s global demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its unique focus on policy, the program will position Carleton on the world stage for civil aviation training and professional development. The university joins a list of six existing IATA Academic Partners<\/a>, all offering specialized aviation related training programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IATA s\u2019associe avec l\u2019Universit\u00e9 Carleton pour offrir un programme de formation pour rapprocher l\u2019industrie de l\u2019aviation des d\u00e9cideurs de politiques publiques<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

L\u2019Association du transport a\u00e9rien international (IATA) s\u2019associe avec l\u2019\u00c9cole de politiques et d\u2019administration publiques de l\u2019Universit\u00e9 Carleton<\/a> \u00e0 Ottawa, Canada, pour lancer un certificat professionnel portant sur les principes et politiques publiques du transport a\u00e9rien<\/a>.  Le programme en ligne, dirig\u00e9 par des instructeurs, a \u00e9t\u00e9 con\u00e7u pour les professionnels de la fonction publique et de l\u2019aviation, et sera offert via le Centre d\u2019innovation des politiques de transport de l\u2019\u00e9cole<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L\u2019objectif est d\u2019offrir aux professionnels de l\u2019aviation et de la fonction publique une meilleure compr\u00e9hension de la complexit\u00e9 du secteur du transport a\u00e9rien et des processus d\u2019\u00e9laboration de politiques publiques.  Avec ces connaissances renforc\u00e9es, les professionnels de l\u2019aviation b\u00e9n\u00e9ficieront d\u2019un large aper\u00e7u des d\u00e9cisions gouvernementales de politiques publiques, alors que les fonctionnaires obtiendront plus de pr\u00e9cisions sur la mani\u00e8re dont l\u2019industrie de l\u2019aviation op\u00e8re, et comment leurs d\u00e9cisions influent sur cet important secteur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab Obtenir une meilleure compr\u00e9hension des secteurs publics et priv\u00e9s est essentiel afin de garantir des op\u00e9rations viables dans un secteur aussi complexe que l\u2019aviation, particuli\u00e8rement en temps de crise.  Ceci est un des points importants \u00e0 retenir alors que nous continuons de reconstruire l\u2019aviation suite aux effets de la fermeture des fronti\u00e8res et des restrictions de voyage reli\u00e9es \u00e0 la COVID-19, un secteur qui fait partie int\u00e9grante de la chaine d\u2019approvisionnement mondiale.  Compter l\u2019Universit\u00e9 Carleton comme partenaire nous permet d\u2019offrir un programme de formation afin d\u2019am\u00e9liorer la compr\u00e9hension et la collaboration entre les d\u00e9cideurs de politiques publiques et l\u2019industrie de l\u2019aviation, leurs permettant d\u2019\u00eatre mieux pr\u00e9par\u00e9s face \u00e0 de futurs d\u00e9fis, tant au Canada que dans le reste du monde, \u00bb a dit Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric L\u00e9ger, le Vice-pr\u00e9sident principal des produits et services commerciaux de l\u2019IATA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab Ce partenariat augmentera la visibilit\u00e9 et l\u2019attrait du transport a\u00e9rien comme sujet d\u2019\u00e9tudes et de carri\u00e8re, menant vers un plus grand nombre de professionnels comp\u00e9tents au sein du gouvernement et de l\u2019industrie, \u00bb a dit Brenda O\u2019Neill, Doyenne de la Facult\u00e9 d\u2019affaires publiques de l\u2019Universit\u00e9 Carleton. \u00ab Cela refl\u00e8te le leadership grandissant de l\u2019\u00c9cole de politiques et d\u2019administration publiques de l\u2019Universit\u00e9 Carleton dans le domaine de la politique publique et de la gouvernance au Canada et \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9tranger. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ce programme se concentrera sur les pratiques d\u2019affaires et l\u2019impact \u00e9conomique de l\u2019industrie du transport a\u00e9rien, tout comme sur la nature et la complexit\u00e9 du processus d\u2019\u00e9laboration de politiques publiques li\u00e9es au secteur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab Les gouvernements formulent parfois des politiques publiques avec de l\u2019information incompl\u00e8te sur les imp\u00e9ratifs \u00e9conomiques qui font face \u00e0 cette industrie \u00bb, a dit le Dr. Marc Rioux, qui est \u00e0 la t\u00eate du Centre d\u2019innovation des politiques de transport, apr\u00e8s une carri\u00e8re chez Transports Canada. \u00ab De leurs c\u00f4t\u00e9s, les participants du secteur priv\u00e9 sous-estiment parfois la complexit\u00e9 de l\u2019\u00e9laboration de politiques publiques.  Ce certificat a pour but de combler cet \u00e9cart de connaissances. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ce partenariat combine la dimension internationale de l\u2019IATA avec une des principales institutions universitaires au Canada. Il vise \u00e0 attirer des professionnels, tant du secteur public que de l\u2019industrie du transport a\u00e9rien, des quatre coins du monde, en renfor\u00e7ant les comp\u00e9tences de la main-d\u2019\u0153uvre afin de r\u00e9pondre \u00e0 la demande mondiale de l\u2019aviation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Avec ce focus unique sur les politiques publiques, ce certificat placera Carleton sur l\u2019\u00e9chiquier mondial en mati\u00e8re de formation et d\u00e9veloppement professionnel de l\u2019aviation civile.  L\u2019universit\u00e9 se joint \u00e0 une liste de six Partenaires Acad\u00e9miques de l\u2019IATA<\/a> actuels, tous offrant des programmes de formation sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9s en aviation.
