IASL students visit Air Canada HQ

Hosted with warm hospitality and guidance from Air Canada employees, the students were treated to an exclusive tour of various facilities, including the crew training facilities, the dangerous goods department, and call centre operations.
The visit also provided the opportunity for students to attend lectures delivered by professionals - many IASL graduates -聽 from Air Canada's legal and regulatory affairs department. The students further had the opportunity to take part in a simulated emergency exercise in Air Canada's flight crew training simulator. A visit to the Dangerous Goods Department rounded out this interesting day.
