Straten Consulting Services Limited (Straten CSL) has formally announced the launch of a new portfolio of specialised aviation training programmes designed to support airports, Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs), regulators, and infrastructure developers operating within increasingly complex operational and safeguarding environments.

Building on the company’s extensive international experience in air traffic management, aviation safeguarding, operational strategy, and infrastructure development, the new training capability has been developed specifically for senior aviation professionals, operational leaders, planners, regulators, and decision-makers who require practical, operationally focused knowledge that can be directly applied within live environments.

The new training portfolio includes programmes covering:

  • Civil Aviation & ANSP Strategic Leadership & Modernisation
  • Global ATM Modernisation & Future Trends in CNS & Datalink
  • Aerodrome Safeguarding Training

Unlike traditional classroom-based aviation courses, Straten CSL’s programmes are designed around real-world operational challenges and strategic aviation requirements. The company’s approach focuses on practical application, operational understanding, safety assurance, and decision-making within complex aviation systems.

Each course is personally delivered by internationally recognised aviation professionals with more than 35 years of operational, regulatory, and consultancy experience across the UK, Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific.

The programmes can also be tailored to the specific needs of individual organisations, including their operational environment, regulatory framework, strategic objectives, airspace complexity, and safeguarding requirements.

Speaking about the launch, John van Hoogstraten said:

“The aviation industry is changing rapidly, particularly in areas such as airspace modernisation, CNS technologies, safeguarding, automation, and infrastructure development. Organisations increasingly need training that is grounded in operational reality rather than purely academic theory. Our focus is to provide practical, experience-led programmes that help professionals make better operational and strategic decisions within complex aviation environments.”

The launch comes at a time when airports, ANSPs, and regulators globally are facing significant operational pressures driven by traffic growth, airspace redesign, emerging technologies, renewable energy development, and increasing regulatory complexity.

Straten CSL’s training programmes are intended to support organisations involved in airport expansion, renewable energy developments, operational transformation, airspace modernisation programmes, and aviation safeguarding activities.

The company believes that effective training remains one of the most important tools available to improve operational resilience, strengthen safety assurance, and support long-term aviation performance.
