ATC Training

NATS training for High Intensity Operations (HIO) prepares controllers for working in some of the most demanding operational environments in the world. We offer training in both theoretical air traffic management and practical simulator-based training.

Our courses benefit from the support network of a world class air navigation service provider, including access to our en-route centres and airports such as Heathrow. Our instructors are experienced controllers, many of whom remain operationally valid, and our courses are supported by an industry-leading Human Factors department.
