IAS - Aviation Academy

Good morning aspiring aviators.

The IAS management has been inundated with questions from its staff, students and prospective students (both local and international), on whether the Academy will resume operations once the Covid-19 lockdown provisions allow.

* To the staff - We assure you of the operational continuity and we intend to accelerate growth way beyond our borders. We encourage you to stay resolute to the great institution that we have jointly created and the international recognition that we continue to have.

* To the students - We assure you of our continued commitment to deliver quality training that still remains the only type to have recieved international accreditation, in the SADC region. It remains unfortunate that interruption of training for students under Government sponsorship, remains a matter beyond our control and rather in the control of the MoTE Accounting Officer, being the Permanent Secretary. We continue to plead for an amicable resolution, for the sake of all parties concerned but primarily yourselves. With this, we implore affected and concerned parties to seek clarification from the MoTE Permanent Secretary, concerning the way forward to the training interruption. The Academy is readily available to share what may be required for understanding, to the benefit of any party including the public.

* To the prospective students, our nation and international community - IAS Aviation Academy has since inception as Botswana's first flight training school, been baptized with fire. Out of its constant grilling has emerged over 100 Commercial Pilots licensed by the CAAB, in accordance to ICAO Annex 1 (which means the licenses are of international recognition). The Academy has international accreditation and global recognition, and while operational challenges are part and parcel of any project, we lament that our success has far outweighed the challenges we gave encountered. In general, the Academy represents a template of a youth inspired, established and run company that remains blind to the misgivings of an economic environment that is hostile to local brand development. Local in this case, simply being a "Botswana", company. We are hopeful of due government policy changes, that could bring about an enabling environment but until then, IAS Aviation Academy and its driven staff will continue to forge against the wind. Besides that's how "lift" is created, to enable flight.

Wishing you all, blessings and safety through the normalisation of our lives, post the Covid-19 pandemic.
