Aviation and Defense Safety
The AISP Certified Safety Officer (CSO) course provides comprehensive training in workplace safety management, hazard identification, and regulatory compliance. It equips safety officers with the skills to implement safety protocols, manage risks, and ensure a safe, compliant work environment across various industries.
What is the Aviation and Defense Safety?
The Aviation and Defense Safety course from the American Institute of Safety Professionals provides industry-specific safety training for professionals working in aviation (commercial, general, military) and defense (manufacturing, maintenance, testing, range operations). These industries operate under unique regulatory frameworks (FAA, ICAO, DoD), face unique hazards (flight operations, FOD, explosives, ordnance, high-energy testing), and require safety management systems that address both conventional occupational hazards and the mission-critical safety requirements specific to aviation and defense. The curriculum covers aviation Safety Management Systems (ICAO Annex 19, FAA SMS framework), flight safety (human factors, crew resource management awareness, flight safety reporting), ground operations safety (ramp, hangar, fuelling, pushback), Foreign Object Debris/Damage (FOD) prevention programmes, aviation HAZMAT (fuel handling, de-icing, aircraft cleaning chemicals), Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) safety (aircraft maintenance hazards, LOTO for aircraft, confined space in aircraft), defense manufacturing safety (explosives, propellants, pyrotechnics), range and testing safety (live fire, ordnance, exclusion zones), laser safety awareness, and the integration of occupational safety with mission/flight safety. All training is delivered 100% online through the American Institute of Safety Professionals LMS.
Who should take this course?

- Defense industry safety professionals (manufacturing, testing, range operations)
- Ground operations supervisors at airports
