In order to maintain the status of a full member of ICAO TRAINAIR PLUS program, the Professional Training Center undergoes a reassessment (audit) every three years, conducted by experts from the ICAO GAT office. Reassessments for compliance with uniform established requirements are mandatory for all members of the TRAINAIR PLUS program, this allows ICAO to maintain oversight of the quality and activities of the training organizations of the TRAINAIR PLUS program.

Due to the pandemic and travel restrictions, the audit program was divided into 2 phases: the first phase took place in a remote work mode from February 22 to March 1, 2021, the second - from February 23 to November 24, 2022 physically with a visit to the Professional Training Center by Mr. Jose Riveros, the expert auditor of the GAT ICAO office.

The audit was successful, and for the first time non-compliance with the established requirements of the TPP program was not identified. The expert noted the excellent audit organization of the Professional Training Center, especially in terms of the correctness of filling out the checklist, the organization and efficiency of the Professional Training Center’s staff, which accelerated the process of passing the ICAO audit.

In general, the interaction between the Professional Training Center and the ICAO GAT office is going well. Thus, since becoming the Professional Training Center as program participant, 6 STPs (Standardized ICAO Training Packages) and 1 M-ITP (ICAO Training Package) have been developed in English.

In addition, there are two ICAO Course Validators in staff of the Professional Training Center who are also qualified as ICAO Senior Course Program Developers and ICAO Qualified Instructor.

Moreover, having joined the Steering Committee of ICAO TP Program, the Professional Training Center actively participates in all online and offline meetings of the committee, including the meeting held on November 1-2, 2022, where they identified the next steps and authorized the members who will coordinate the conduct of the analysis and implementation of the plan by TPP members in the regions.
