Bridging the Industry Gap: The Amadeus Advanced Certification Program
To further strengthen the technical expertise of its students, the School of Aviation, Logistics and Tourism Management (SALTM) organised an intensive Amadeus Advanced Certification Program in association with Air Grace Academy. This industry-led, skill-based training was delivered in two specialised batches in December 2025 at the state of the art Advanced Computer Lab, ensuring that students across different specialisations received hands-on, practical experience with the world’s leading Global Distribution System (GDS).
The program was structured as follows:
