Addressing A Challenging Situation There is a critical shortfall of qualified special process personnel in the aerospace industry, as well as a skills gap created by an increasingly globalised workforce. This has increased pressure on all organisations to reduce the time required to train new personnel and ensure they achieve adequate standards of competency at all levels. Confirmed speakers include Abaris Training, Honeywell, and Solar Atmospheres.

Be Part of the Solution The industry has joined together to create eQualified, a special process personnel qualification program. Using the combined technical expertise of the participating organizations, eQualified:

• Validates personnel competency through theoretical and practical assessments.
• Approves training providers to deliver technical courses aligned with the Bodies of Knowledge.
