12“The programme introduced me to the finer
aspects of ground handling in my line of work.
These aspects include Human Factor, Security,
Safety Management Systems, Aircraft
systems and Airport operations. I am now
more confident when dealing with clients and
airport authorities." (2018)

“The lecturers have imparted many valuable
nuggets of information as they gave a first-
hand experience of their work encounters in
the industry. The exercises given to us such as
analysing and finding out the causes behind an
airline's financial and operational performance
are relevant in today's working environment
where we need to make sense of data. I find
this skill nurtured during my education at SIM
transferable to any industry.” (2018)

"The programme equipped me with aviation
management knowledge that is specific to the
masses, and the modules emphasize on the
endless future possibilities of the industry. Taking
up this degree has given me the opportunity to
explore other roles in the company and take on
more responsibility." (2018)
