Aviation Safety Management Systems (SMS)
An ongoing investment in the safety performance of both your people and your organisation.
The SMS Refresher course serves as an ongoing investment in the safety performance of both employees and the organisation. It reinforces existing knowledge and equips participants with the tools needed to navigate the evolving landscape of safety management successfully.
Participants enhance their knowledge of safety management practices and gain improved risk assessment and emergency response skills. Organisations gain assurance of compliance awareness with current regulations and a reinforced safety culture.
All content and activities are aimed at the small to medium-sized operator, with an emphasis on practical techniques and solutions — including exercises to develop key skills and completed templates to use as a guide.

We are a recognised training provider by the NZ CAA and have achieved the highest (Category 1) rating by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority. Our tutors are renowned for their ability to deliver clear and practical training to operators at the coalface of the aviation sector in New Zealand and across the South Pacific.
Our courses focus on delivering the skills you need without an excess of theory or irrelevant content. We tailor our delivery on the assumption that you will immediately return to work and practically apply SMS within your operation.
We allow plenty of time for questions and for the tutor to explain issues relevant to you and your business. You will have the input of other students and the benefit of their recent experiences. Workbooks with templates and exercises leave you with practical material you can apply directly to your operation.
An endorsed Certificate of Completion is awarded at the conclusion of the course.
