Digital Membership Certificates Offer Several Advantages

NBAA members now receive digital member certificates annually via email. NBAA membership certificates can be downloaded, printed, shared on social media and embedded in email signatures – all directly through a dedicated link.

Digital certificates offer several advantages over paper ones:

• They support our industry’s sustainability efforts.
• They are much more shareable and provide an opportunity to show your support for NBAA in a more social/engaging way.
• They also provide NBAA with an opportunity to be better stewards of members’ dues, spending money saved on things that directly impact their operations, like critical advocacy work.

Members can only access their certificate via the PDF that is attached to the email that comes directly from NBAA. Those who still want physical plaques can order them via the URL at the end of this article.

In order to receive your digital certificate, ensure you are a member in good standing by visiting nbaa.org/join.

Fundamentals of IS-BAO

This workshop will provide attendees with a deeper understanding of the International Standard for Business Aircraft Operations (IS-BAO) and safety management systems (SMS) in general and enable participants to confidently start the IS-BAO implementation process. For those who have already implemented IS-BAO, this course will help them prepare for an audit, reinforce the current IS-BAO concept and provide information on key changes to the safety standard.

Highly Effective Teams at Work

This course will use fun, interactive techniques, as well as guest appearances from industry people, to get participants to think differently about teams and how they work. Motivational concepts that can enhance teamwork will be covered, including diversity, mutualism, inclusiveness and finding talent through a strength-based philosophy. Also, project management will be examined.

Dynamics of Empowered Leadership

Leadership has evolved from a “do as I say!” style to a more flexible people- , company- and stakeholder-focused approach. Toxic behaviors, petty conflicts, and hidden agendas have no place in today’s business environment. Every team member brings a unique set of characteristics to the department, but the responsibility to maximize one’s potential, job satisfaction and safety procedures now encompasses both leaders and team members. Ideally, a leader sees the view from the balcony, directing the team to adhere to safety standards, deliver exceptional customer service and collaborate for the benefit of all. This course will help participants capitalize on group dynamics, maximize performance, assess the ethics of actions, learn to be better mentors and communicate more clearly.
