CAAS and Entry Point North to collaborate on air traffic services training

The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) and Entry Point North (EPN) have concluded a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to explore cooperation in air traffic services (ATS) training and related services. The MOU was signed by Mr Han Kok Juan, Director-General of CAAS, and Ms Anne Kathrine Jensen, Chief Executive Officer of EPN, on 26 May 2026, on the sidelines of Airspace World 2026 in Lisbon,
Portugal.

The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) projects that global air passenger volume will nearly triple over the next 25 years. To meet rising demand for air travel, air navigation service providers will need to recruit and train more air traffic controllers and adopt new training approaches that leverage technology and cater to how the younger generation learns.

The MOU establishes a framework for CAAS and EPN to cooperate in aviation training and related services through instructor exchanges and development, training technology enhancements (including digital learning and AI-enabled simulation), joint course development, and the exploration of joint commercial cooperation in Southeast Asia and other agreed regions. The partnership also aims to promote best practices to
support the safe and efficient development of the aviation industry.
