Current Trends and Developments in the Modernisation of the Aviation Training System

The relevance of the study is related to the increasingly important role of air transport in recent years. The need for training in civil aviation has been identified as an integral and key component in improving the performance of civil aviation and its services. Today, the transport industry occupies an important position in the economy of any country since the development of transport has a competitive impact on the economy. Air transportation in the Republic of Kazakhstan significantly affects the state of the national economy and occupies a certain share in the structure of GDP. In recent years, the development of the state with its geographical location and low population density requires an increase in air transport facilities. Consequently, population movements and the burden of economic development, along with the establishment of relations between regions, are becoming an increasingly necessary service every year. The purpose of the study is to investigate the issues of training specialists in civil aviation by analysing the current situation in the aviation industry in Kazakhstan. The development of small and regional aviation is one of the main tasks of the civil aviation industry of the Republic of Kazakhstan to enable the population of remote settlements to access large centres of macrostructures, solve urgent and emergency situations, and perform agricultural and chemical activities. In this regard, appropriate measures are being taken to make local airports capable of accommodating aircraft from 10 to 50 tonnes. The economic status of state aviation, the growth of consumer markets and the growth rate of changes in international requirements of ISO, IACO, IATO have revealed systemic problems in civil aviation, among which the quality training for the civil aviation specialists is an important one. The practical significance is the transformation and adjustment of current trends and modernisations into educational standards, followed by the formation of a competence model in air transport training.
