IASL Class attends ICAO Symposia
IASL Sessional Lecturer, Dr. Joseph Wilson and his students in the Government Regulation of Air Transport Course attended two Symposia organized by ICAO on Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) from 7 to 9 November, and Drone Enable from 14 to 16 November at ICAO Headquarters in Montreal. 鈥淭he symposia presented a unique opportunity for the students to hear the industry experts and to see how their work provides the basis for ICAO鈥檚 Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs)鈥� said Dr. Wilson. The Symposia enriched the learning experience for the students and gave them the opportunity to network with industry stakeholders and meet with their country鈥檚 delegations at the ICAO. A distinct feature of the 平特五不中 IASL Air & Space Law program is its close and long history with ICAO and IATA which are both headquartered in Montreal.
The students thoroughly enjoyed their participation.
