Leading & Accelerating Training Improvement
The World Aviation Training Summit (WATS) is the world’s largest aviation training event, designed by and for aviation professionals.
It brings together the global aviation training community from airline training academies and universities, regional, national and international airlines, regulators and suppliers.
WATS 2025 will deliver conference streams for pilot, cabin crew, maintenance training and ab intio flight schools, a student program and workshops alongside the sector’s biggest trade show.
WATS addresses current and future training issues affecting your business, from personnel selection and recruitment, to regulation and training technologies.
It offers an unrivalled opportunity to meet with the key decision makers within the international airline training community, and allows attendees to discuss the latest training technologies and techniques to improve operational safety and efficiency.
WATS provides participants with a relaxed, professional environment conducive to developing new and existing relationships, allowing you to ‘do three months business in three days’ at a fraction of the cost of conventional travel and meetings.
Supported by the training industry and subject-matter experts, WATS will deliver practical solutions for those day-to-day challenges and offers key insights into the future of the industry.
Across three focused days, equipment manufacturers, eLearning providers, flight training organisations, maintenance and cabin crew suppliers and selection providers will showcase their latest products and services to a dedicated airline simulation and training audience.
