Worldwide Flight Services (WFS) has been honoured with the International Air Transport Association’s IATA Competency-Based Training & Assessment (CBTA) Center ‘Best Performance Award’ for its global employee training programme. IATA’s CBTA Center programme is a global certification initiative that recognises organisations for meeting aviation training requirements using a competency-based training and assessment approach.

The CBTA Center ‘Best Performance Award’ is determined through a comprehensive evaluation process that includes metrics on instructor effectiveness, the relevance and comprehensiveness of course materials, and student feedback. WFS achieved the highest scores across these categories in the annual IATA survey, distinguishing itself among IATA CBTA Centers worldwide.

"In 2023, the IATA CBTA Center’s network, which spans 208 centres across 64 countries, successfully trained 75,000 individuals. Recognition of WFS as the best performing IATA CBTA centre reflects dedication to delivering high-quality training and continuous improvement. As the air cargo industry transforms to be more efficient with digitalisation, and pursues net zero carbon emissions by 2050, a well-trained workforce is critical. We extend our congratulations to WFS on this significant accomplishment," said Yaniv Sorany, Principal of IATA Certification.
