Africa-Press<\/a> – Tanzania<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>THE National Institute of Transport (NIT) has revived its Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Air Tanzania Company Limited (ATCL) to strengthen collaboration that brings efficiency to the aviation industry.<\/p>\n

The ATCL\u2019s Executive Director, Mr Ladislaus Matindi said in Dar es Salaam over the weekend that the collaboration will give room for two government organizations to share expertise.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe collaborations with NIT will further reduce costs incurred often by the national flag carrier to send its workers abroad for mandatory recurrent training,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cWe currently have 120 workers who can receive training at NIT. Air industry personnel\u2019s are required to have specialized training as per license, therefore this collaboration is very vital to our organization,\u201d Sending a pilot for a 3 to 4 hours training in South Africa is very expensive than a pilot getting such training here at NIT.<\/p>\n

On his part, NIT\u2019s Rector Prof Zacharia Mganilwa said, \u201cWe have renewed the MoU signed in 2012 between NIT and ATCL to collaborate in designing and conducting various training programmes, exchanging information, data and documents related to aviation- related programmes.\u201d<\/p>\n

The main objective of the MoU is to enable the two institutions to collaborate in curricula and manual development, exchange of experienced trainers, staff and student attachments, and capacity building for junior and senior staff. \u201cNIT has always remained the best institution when it comes to training in transportation.<\/p>\n

The co-operation with the ATCL will enable NIT to cover for the shortcomings experienced in aviation training which fortunately enough, we had already identified,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mganilwa said that the collaboration with ATCL will assist NIT\u2019s School of Aviation and Technology to produce more professionals who will support operations of the national air carrier.<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cThe Institute has divided Air transport into two major groups based on the training nature and delivery approach. These are Air Transport Management and Operations including Pilot Training and Aviation Engineering.\u201d<\/p>\n

NIT established the School of Aviation Technology in 2015 with two departments (Departments of Flying and Operations Management and Aeronautical Engineering) as the move to produce enough professionals who will support the sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have secured 21.25 million US dollars from the World Bank through the EASTRIP project (2019- 2024) aiming at improving training through the establishedNIT\u2019s Centre of Excellence in Aviation and Transport Operations (CEATO),\u201d Prof Mganilwa said.<\/p>\n

The Institute has also acquired60 hectares of land at the Kilimanjaro International Airport (KIA) which will be used for establishing the Aviation Flying School funded by the World Bank<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
