A leading aviation firm has launched an initiative to inspire young Nigerians to explore the wide range of career opportunities available in the aviation industry beyond becoming pilots.

The programme introduces participants to professions such as aircraft engineering, air traffic management, aviation safety, airport operations, cabin services, logistics, and aerospace technology, with the aim of broadening awareness of the sector.

According to the company, the initiative seeks to bridge the knowledge gap among young people, encourage skills development, and prepare a new generation of professionals to meet the evolving needs of the aviation industry.

Industry stakeholders said attracting more young talent into aviation is essential to addressing future workforce demands and supporting the sector’s long-term growth.

The firm reaffirmed its commitment to nurturing talent and promoting aviation as a dynamic career path capable of creating employment opportunities and contributing to Nigeria’s economic development.
