With its growing population, rapid urbanization and being an active regional commercial base, Turkey is developing its civil aviation and airport infrastructure tremendously. Over the past decade, Turkey has experienced an astonishing growth in annual aviation traffic and expects double-digit growth in the years to come. Of course, this growth has brought out a need of well trained and qualified personnel. In terms of sustainability and to enhance flight safety at the same time, the need of well-educated personnel capable and willing to meet the future challenges has emerged. Training is of vital importance for providing these human resources.As being partners in the region, the EC and the Republic of Turkey co-funded a project to establish a Training Center in Istanbul to further develop and stabilize Turkey as a regional center for aviation training, by means of establishing the Turkish Civil Aviation Academy (TCAA) operated by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation of Turkey.TCAA in cooperation with the already existing academies and universities will pave Turkey´s way to become a global aviation training hub providing high quality aviation training. So, TCAA aims to: ---provide aviation training compliant with international standards; ---enhance the aviation safety and security capacity in Turkey and in the region; ---educate the next generation of aviation professionals; and---create mechanisms for sharing knowledge and experience between the aviation community for a safe, secure and sustainable civil aviation in the World.
