Proactive Protection: Safety Management Systems (SMS) Online Training

In accordance with ICAO Annex 19 & EASA 145.A.200

Welcome to your industry-leading, audit-ready e-learning solution for Safety Management Systems (SMS).

A modern aviation safety culture is no longer built simply on reacting to accidents after they happen; it relies on actively finding hazards, evaluating risk, and fixing problems before they compromise operations. EASA’s Part-145 regulations (specifically 145.A.200) fully align maintenance organisations with ICAO Annex 19, embedding SMS directly into the core of airworthiness management.

This interactive online course equips your workforce with a clear, practical understanding of SMS principles—shifting safety from a top-down paperwork requirement into a daily operational habit across your entire organisation.

Built on the Four Pillars of SMS

Our curriculum maps directly to the international SMS framework established by ICAO and enforced by EASA, structured across all four essential pillars:

  • Safety Policy & Objectives: Establishing management commitment, defining clear lines of safety accountability, appointing key safety personnel, and integrating emergency response planning.
  • Safety Risk Management (SRM): Mastering the core engines of SMS: proactive hazard identification, continuous risk assessment, and implementing effective risk mitigations.
  • Safety Assurance: Monitoring safety performance, managing operational change smoothly, and conducting continuous internal audits to drive systemic improvement.
  • Safety Promotion: Building training paths, establishing open communication channels, and fostering a robust Just Culture where staff feel confident reporting hazards without fear of unfair punishment.

The Core SMS Shift: Traditional safety focused on compliance (following rules). Safety Management Systems focus on performance (measuring how well safety actions work in practice). This course teaches your team how to bridge that exact gap.
