ICAO and the Singapore Aviation Academy (SAA) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in 2017 to collaborate in developing and organizing a new ICAO-SAA Directors General of Civil Aviation Programme on Aviation Security, which was launched today.
The Programme provides participants with specific knowledge pertaining to the international civil aviation security framework and its compliance. The underlying principles covered in the Programme will enable appropriate civil aviation authorities to carry out their responsibilities to ensure the effective management of aviation security in their States. It features a roundtable discussion on new emerging threats, challenges, considerations and international cooperation, as well as in-depth case study discussions.
Presiding over the inauguration ceremony, ICAO Secretary General Dr. Fang Liu expressed her gratitude for the instrumental support of the Ministry of Transport of Singapore’s Senior Director for International Relations and Security, Mr. Bernard Lim, as well Singapore’s Representative on the Council of ICAO, Mr. Tee Chiou Ng.
