What is airport management?
It is the work of keeping an airport running: the terminal where passengers check in and board, the land side where vehicles and services operate, and the curb side where passengers arrive and leave.
Is a degree needed?
This is a six-month certificate course. We ask for 12th pass and prefer graduates. It is not a degree.
How is it different from the ground staff course?
The ground staff course trains you for check-in, boarding, baggage and ticketing. This course covers how the whole airport operates across the terminal, land side and curb side.
How long is the course?
Six months.
Is placement guaranteed?
No. Admission to a course does not guarantee an offer of employment. The admissions team can explain the assistance available for the selected course.
