Description

The EASA Part-IS Familiarisation course is a one-day program that helps aviation professionals understand the EU Part-IS regulatory framework for information security. It explains how cybersecurity connects with aviation safety and compliance within the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) system.

Throughout the course, participants explore real-life aviation cases and simple examples. These make it easier to understand key concepts such as Information Security Management Systems (ISMS), safety-relevant assets, risk management, and incident reporting. Step by step, learners build confidence in using the main terms and principles of Part-IS.

By the end of the training, participants will know how to describe the structure and purpose of Part-IS. They will also see how it aligns with global standards like ISO 27001 and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. In addition, they will understand how national aviation authorities (NAAs) carry out oversight and what auditors expect to find during inspections.

This EASA Part-IS Familiarisation course follows the Level 1 Familiarisation definition in EASA Regulation (EU) 1321/2014 (Part-66). It is ideal for staff from civil aviation authorities, airlines, airports, maintenance organisations, and ground handling companies who need basic awareness of aviation cybersecurity.

After completing the course, participants receive a Certificate of Completion. This certificate shows their understanding of EASA Part-IS and their ability to support a culture of security across operational and safety roles.

Overall, the EASA Part-IS Familiarisation course helps aviation organisations strengthen awareness, improve compliance, and build resilience against modern cybersecurity threats.
