Dangerous Goods by Air Awareness Training

We offer lessons and advice that have been developed from an extensive background in helideck operations. We have used our industry experience to create an HCA eLearning course for Dangerous Goods by Air Awareness. This is essential for helideck crews and onshore personnel involved in helicopter operations in the North Sea and further afield.

Specialising in helicopter landing sites on fixed platforms and mobile decks, HCA works hard to produce the highest quality content for people of all experience levels. Whether it’s for new recruits at the start of a career in helideck operations or refresher training for your staff who have been in the industry for decades, we can help.

Our online training is designed to provide crew with all the necessary knowledge to operate at the highest level and keep in line with key regulations.

Competency Assessments

Our competency assessments for offshore helideck crews are designed to check that training and skills are put into practice, ensuring correct procedures are being followed.

We spend time with helideck crews while they’re performing their job, witnessing how they deal with landings and departures along with general operations.

The aim is not only to reduce risk and improve safety, but also build confidence within the crew and help them perform to their full potential.

There’s always an opportunity to glean extra value from our partnership with HCA. It’s hugely experienced in delivering conventional inspection and certification work, but its capabilities extend well beyond those and into other key areas such as consultancy and training. That breadth of service provision is certainly reassuring.
