Airways VATM Train Abroad

15/09/2021

It’s great to see Airways Knowledge Online (AKO) continuing to attract organisations and students from across the globe to study remotely with us, as Covid-19 border and travel restrictions continue. A group of seven students from Somaliland are embracing online training via AKO, currently studying ICAO 051 ATS Licensing Subjects with us - and loving it!

We've been a little bit busy over here at Airways International... busy launching our Airways Knowledge Online (AKO) virtual training academy! We can't deliver face-to-face training right now to our international customers... so we're delivering training remotely.

And we've also been busy revamping one of our ATC simulator cabs into the AKO Studio, where we support virtual hosting of training, events and webinars.

Check out the studio in our video below... and check out the courses available through AKO here: https://bit.ly/2JsjFto

Today our 14 students from VATM419 finished their course and graduated from their ATC studies with Airways Training in Christchurch. We are very impressed with what they have achieved in their time here, and wish them all the best for their future careers as Air Traffic Controllers in Vietnam.

Over the last couple of weeks, our VATM students have begun classes in the sim, been for a visit at the Air Force Museum, and even checked out the Canterbury Aero Club where they will be doing some flying of their own at the end of this month - stay tuned for those pics!

Kia Ora (hello)

Kiwi’s (New Zealander's are referred to as Kiwis - not the fruit) often speak fast and sound funny! So, to prepare you for NZ we thought we’d put together some popular Kiwi Slang for you!

- Sweet As = Cool or Awesome
- No Worries = It's OK / Not a Problem
- She'll be Right = It's OK / Not a Problem
- Bro = Brother or good friend
- Yeah, nah = This is an indecisive phrase, followed by an explanation
- Takeaways = Fast food
- Munted = Broken/ Not Working/ Damaged
- Haka = Maori War Dance

No worries bro if it looks a bit munted, she’ll be right, it’s just the way Kiwis talk!
