At the NBAA Certified Aviation Manager (CAM) Governing Board meeting this month, the highly detailed Certified Aviation Manager (CAM) job analysis will begin the revision process that will lead to new educational and testing criteria in the near future. Think of the job analysis as a detailed job description for flight department leaders, said Jay Evans, NBAA’s director of professional development. “It’s a compendium of the things you need to know to run a flight department. It’s also something flight department managers need to know to remain current on new issues and innovations that come down the path.” The job analysis function also applies to the NBAA Professional Development Program.
