Contract Courses

Meeting a Need


Aircraft operators, airports and aviation authorities often have the need to provide USC Aviation Safety and Security courses to a large number of employees.  In order to respond to this need, the USC Aviation Safety and System Safety program courses are available upon request at locations other than our Los Angeles classrooms.  This allows an aviation organization to train its employees in a short amount of time for a relatively modest cost.

Within the last couple years we have conducted off-site courses on several continents.  The International Federation of Air Line Pilots' Associations (IFALPA) hosted two courses, Human Factors in Aviation Safety and Incident Investigation/Analysis, in Tunisia.  The Air Line Pilots' Association (ALPA) of Japan hosted a course in Aircraft Accident Investigation.  In the Caribbean, the training center for the Civil Aviation Authority of Trinidad & Tobago provided support for courses in Aviation Safety Management Systems and Investigation/Analysis.

On the domestic scene, the US Air Force, Navy, Army, Hawaii DOT, JetBlue, Google and Uber received training in Aviation Safety and System Safety courses at various locations within the United States.

With COVID restricting the ability to travel, we have successfully delivered online contract courses to the US military, the CAA of Vietnam, CAA of Thailand, Okay Airlines, Air New Zealand, Verizon, Joy Airlines, the DGCA Indonesia and the DGCA India. 

Organizations interested in arranging for a contract course at their own facilities should contact Holly Inaba at: hinaba@usc.edu or at 310-342-1352.
