1. Why is it important?
Effective auditing of aircraft de-icing and anti-icing operations is essential to ensure compliance with safety standards, regulatory requirements and industry best practices. Poor oversight or ineffective quality management can lead to operational risks, safety incidents and non compliance with the clean aircraft concept.
De-icing auditors play a critical role in verifying that procedures are correctly implemented, risks are controlled and quality standards are maintained. Strong audit capability supports safe, compliant and efficient winter operations across ground handling environments.

This course is designed for aviation auditors, including internal auditors from airlines, ground handling organisations and other aviation service providers, as well as personnel working in quality assurance and quality management roles who require an understanding of how to apply audit techniques within aircraft de-icing and anti-icing operations.
Please note that, although similar in nature, this course does not qualify participants to conduct DAQCP audits.
