HAECO Group announced today that it has entered into a long-term agreement with Airbus to provide maintenance and engineering training in Mainland China and Southeast Asia on Airbus aircraft.
Under the terms of the agreement with Airbus, the HAECO Group will deploy “Training by Airbus” standards, dynamic tools and teaching techniques to provide Aircraft Original Equipment Manufacturer-backed maintenance training capabilities to its own personnel and to third-party customers around the region.
This collaboration will enable trainees to attain the very highest competence levels, through access to industry-leading technology, training media and optimised courseware. The ground-breaking Airbus Competence Training (ACT) concept for maintenance personnel will bring virtual Airbus aircraft right into a “digital” classroom within the HAECO Group’s facilities.
Augustus Tang, Chief Executive Officer of the HAECO Group, said: “As one of the world’s leading MRO service providers, with 65 years’ experience in the industry, the HAECO Group has a proud history of providing first-class technical training to numerous generations of aircraft engineering professionals. We are delighted to embark on this strategic training collaboration with Airbus, further strengthening and extending our training services to benefit airlines worldwide.”
Didier Lux, Executive Vice President of Airbus Customer Services said: “We are pleased to be partnering with the HAECO Group in this new initiative and are confident that the experience and professionalism of its staff will foster the successful deployment of Training by Airbus in Asia.”
