In the ever-evolving aviation industry, continuous learning and compliance training are mission-critical. Airlines like Air New Zealand, Qantas, and Air Canada have successfully leveraged SumTotal Systems and Cornerstone OnDemand LMS to streamline their training, ensure regulatory compliance, and enhance workforce efficiency. At Farshoris Consulting, we specialize in implementing these cutting-edge Learning Management Systems (LMS) to help airlines optimize their learning strategies and achieve operational excellence.

Why Airlines Need a Robust LMS
For airlines, an effective Learning Management System (LMS) is more than just a training tool—it is the backbone of a highly skilled and compliant workforce. The key benefits include:
✅ Regulatory Compliance: Automates tracking, reporting, and completion of mandated training to meet FAA, EASA, CASA, and other international aviation standards.
✅ Safety & Operational Training: Ensures pilots, cabin crew, ground staff, and maintenance teams receive consistent, up-to-date training.
✅ Centralized Learning Ecosystem: Consolidates multiple training programs (technical, soft skills, leadership) into one integrated platform accessible across global locations.
✅ Mobile & On-Demand Training: Supports learning anytime, anywhere, which is crucial for a mobile and dispersed workforce.
✅ Advanced Analytics & AI-Powered Insights: Helps aviation HR and L&D teams track learning progress, identify skill gaps, and enhance workforce preparedness using data-driven insights.
