ICAO Training Scholarship Programme

The objective of the ICAO Training Scholarship Programme is to assist Member States having
difficulties in developing their safety or security oversight capabilities or implementing ICAO
Programmes. This Programme will support Member States by enabling their nominated staff to attend
training courses and programmes organized by ICAO or training organizations that have signed a
Memorandum of Understanding or Memorandum of Cooperation with ICAO, provided they have
fulfilled the following criteria:

1) priority for granting a training scholarship will be given to Least-Developed Countries

(United Nations Conference on Trade and Development list) and Member States with significant
safety or security oversight shortcomings, such as a significant safety or security concern
identified by the ICAO Universal Safety Oversight Audit Programme (USOAP) or Universal
Security Audit Programme, and ICAO USOAP results with less than 40% effective
implementation;

2) the applicant must be employed by a civil aviation authority, a Regional Safety Oversight
Organization (RSOO), Regional Accident or Incident Investigation Organization (RAIO), or a
government organization in the aviation field related to the training activity;

3) the application must be supported by the civil aviation authority; and

4) the course should be directly related to the human resources needs of a Member State.

The training scholarship will apply to course tuition fees only and may cover these fees partially or
fully. Furthermore, other costs, such as transportation, accommodations, daily subsistence allowance,
and medical travel insurance, shall be borne by the applicant or the employer.

Applications for the ICAO Training Scholarship Programme should be submitted, using the attached
application form, to the appropriate Regional Office for screening and coordination with the Global
Aviation Training Office and the relevant Bureau at ICAO Headquarters in Montréal. The final
decision for the training scholarship shall remain at the discretion of the Director of the Bureau.
