14 May 2008

The Belize Ministry of Tourism and Civil Aviation has announced that Belize, in coordination with the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Planning, Coordination and Implementation Branch, together with Transport Canada, is hosting an Aviation Security (AVSEC) Screener Certification Workshop from the 12th to the 16th May, 2008.

The objective of this workshop is to provide participants with detailed information and familiarization on the requirements for the screener certification process, in order to better enable them to either draft a process for certifying screeners; who primarily screen passengers before boarding flights, or to review their State’s existing national requirements.

Training in the aviation security discipline is conducted with the aim of preventing, combating and eradicating terrorism involving civil aviation, restoring public confidence in air travel, and promoting the health of the air transport industry.

The Ministry of Tourism and Civil Aviation says that it is committed to ensuring that the aviation industry thrives and prospers into a safe and reliable system.

Participants at this workshop include representatives from the Department of Civil Aviation, Belize Airports Authority, Belize Airport Concession Company Ltd., and the Civil Aviation Authorities from the Bahamas and Jamaica.
