The Mission
The mission of the AAMS Safety Management Training Academy is to provide a comprehensive foundation in the science and application of the discipline of safety systems for current and future leaders in the air medical and critical care transport industry. The ultimate goal of the program is to build a cadre of industry personnel with a broader knowledge and interest in all aspects of the management of safety across the entire enterprise of medical transportation – with special emphasis on safety management systems, patient safety, aviation/vehicle operational safety, and workplace safety.
 
About The Academy
The Academy provides formal continuing education for individuals (and their organizations) interested in improving their understanding of safety systems theory and the application of that theory to the practice of medical transportation. Students will gain expertise and practical skills through formal didactic and participatory sessions designed to instill creative thinking and decision-making. Participants also obtain valuable insight into real life challenges by networking with industry leaders. The Academy operates with a rigorous approach to competency-based education, utilizing formal classroom hours, mandatory student participation, written testing, and a code of professional conduct. Due to the demands of the program, students will be expected to complete out-of-classroom assignments. Graduates of the first and second year programs will receive a certificate of instruction and will be invited to participate in more in-depth programs on specific safety management topics offered in the future. Both years can be completed within a 12-month period.
