The IATA certificate will have global legal validity. The VIAGS courses commissioned by IATA will include category 3 dangerous goods, basic goods service, live animal service, aviation security awareness and many other courses related to aviation transport.
Under the guidance of VIAGS trainers, students register for the course and participate in the tests organised by IATA in Vietnamese territory.
With the IATA centre in Vietnam, individuals and organisations operating in the aviation transport sector can save on learning costs compared to IATA training courses in foreign countries, while ensuring the certification of the most prestigious airline organisation in the world.
