A.F.A.N. 2016

The AFAN project was born from the experiences of a group of professionals in the field. The intense and frenetic work led to the creation of a highly qualified structure which aims at a specialized research and professional training.


The focus is on the training issues of two segments of the wider transport sector: aeronautics and naval. The AFAN therefore intends to be a solution to the HR needs of the companies of the two segments through the following activities:

  • Analysis of the training needs of the various entities such as airlines and ground operators included in airports, ports and connected systems.
  • Planning, development and provision of education and training programs of different levels, developed in compliance with national, European and international directives, according to consolidated methods in the training and human resources development.
  • Initial training of newly hired personnel;
  • Continuous training and updating of already operating and trained personnel;
  • Higher level specialist training for specific figures and tasks;
  • Implementation of study events, spreading and exchange of knowledge - conferences, lectures, workshops - on the most current and crucial issues related to the aerial / maritime reality and technical-specialist training.

Aeronautical sector

The addressees of the training are Pilots, Flight Attendants, staff of the Aeronautical Maintenance, and other personnel that has to do with Aviation (Flight Controllers, Flight Dispatchers, flight assistance personnel, airport personnel, etc.).
In compliance with the regulations and the national regulations in force, AFAN has received ENAC certification of the AELP program, a test valid for the level of English under national and international regulations. AFAN has its own certified center to carry out tests for the minimum level of English in the aeronautical sector. The company has also developed and implemented a series of training courses to increase the required English language skills. All programs, although not formally required by the standards, are inspired by the contents of European and / or national legislation which implicitly indicate their usefulness.
