Overview

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University's (ERAU) Air Transportation Management course is part of a joint Logistics and Supply Chain Management Certificate with the International Air Transportation Association (IATA). This course is designed to provide students with an understanding of air transportation management. We will explore the emerging trends in the industry and look at some of the managerial aspects of how to manage in this international industry, and finish off by looking at financial management processes. As you will learn, financial management may be just as important as actually flying an aircraft. The industry has typically operated on tight margins and through the years, many of the world's airlines have entered into financial difficulties, while some have returned, and some have merged, many have not survived. This course may only be taken as part of the Logistics and Supply Chain Management Certificate

You will earn 2.0 CEUs upon completion of this course.
