Certificate of Registration

Flight Departments implementing IS-BAO may wish to obtain a Certificate of Registration from IBAC, thus demonstrating compliance to a recognized international standard.  IS-BAO is a voluntary standard and registration is voluntary; however, there may be considerable benefits to a flight department by advising Boards of Directors, regulators and insurance companies, of compliance to the international standard.

Audits

Certificates of Registration are issued by IBAC to flight departments that have demonstrated compliance through successful completion of a third party industry audit by an IBAC Accredited Auditor.

Flight departments arrange for an audit directly with an Accredited Auditor. The audits are conducted pursuant to the
IBAC Audit Procedures Manual, which is provided to auditors attending the audit workshop.

Accredited Auditors

IBAC will accredit auditors following completion of a one day workshop. The IBAC standards for the qualifications and experience required for auditors are as follows:

• knowledge in civil air regulations provisions in general, particularly those of the International Civil Aviation Organization;
• knowledge in aircraft operational management;
• a minimum of five years experience in an aviation discipline;
• have completed a recognized audit course such as an ISO or other standards body related course, for either external or internal auditing, or have extensive aviation auditor experience;
• have experience in aviation safety management; and
• excellent written and oral communication skills.

IS-BAO Workshops

IBAC offers workshops on a periodic basis. Locations for the workshops are selected to facilitate attendance, and are held in North America and Europe each year.

For auditors seeking IS-BAO accreditation the cost of the workshop includes a copy of the Audit Procedures Manual. To maintain the validity of their accreditation auditors are required to attend a workshop within the previous two calendar years.
