Internationally-set safety standards emanating from the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO); European Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA); EUROCONTROL; the European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC), the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and the European Union (EU) guide the IAA in ensuring that Irish civil aviation operates to the most stringent safety standards.
The IAA also utilises its expansive skill set to provide:
- Technical training: domestically, at its own purpose-built training centre, and internationally at customers' locations;
- Aviation consultancy services worldwide.
The IAA remains one of the few European Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSP) that are certified to E.N. ISO 9001:2000 for all their operations. The Authority contributes to the Eurocontrol Excellence Policy Group (XPG) and the North European Safety & Quality Management Forum (NSQ).
The management and staff of the IAA are committed to ensuring the provision of Air Navigation Services and Safety Regulation, which fully meet the requirements of their customers and regulated clients. It is their aim to become world class in the aviation sector by setting and achieving the highest standards of excellence in the services they provide.
