Training
The training to become an AFISO is not internationally regulated and is subject to
national CAA legislation. There is one international academy providing AFIS training approved in most European nations. The academy located in Sweden at Malmö Airport called EPN – Entry Point North provides AFIS training with and without radar. The basic school training is approximately 13 weeks long and needs to be followed by national training and unit training. See more at http://www.entrypointnorth.com

Famous quotes containing the word training:
“The sum and substance of female education in America, as in England, is training women to consider marriage as the sole object in life, and to pretend that they do not think so.”
—Harriet Martineau (1802–1876)
“They’ll bust you in the lobby. You look like a training poster for the narc squad.”
—John Guare (b. 1938)
“The triumphs of peace have been in some proximity to war. Whilst the hand was still familiar with the sword-hilt, whilst the habits of the camp were still visible in the port and complexion of the gentleman, his intellectual power culminated; the compression and tension of these stern conditions is a training for the finest and softest arts, and can rarely be compensated in tranquil times, except by some analogous vigor drawn from occupations as hardy as war.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
