East African School of Aviation

The East African School of Aviation (EASA) functions as the primary training and human capital development arm of the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority. Positioned within the institutional segment of the aerospace value chain, it provides professional instruction to meet the regulatory requirements for aviation personnel. Its remit includes the standardisation of technical skills for air traffic controllers, engineers, and flight safety inspectors, ensuring the local workforce complies with international safety standards. The organisation serves a regional customer base, including national airlines, airport authorities, and private operators across the continent. It is designated as an ICAO Regional Training Centre of Excellence, placing it within a network of global partners tasked with delivering high-level aviation management and safety courses. Its curriculum is built around the requirements for civil aviation oversight and the operational needs of regional hubs such as Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. Prospective partners or buyers should verify the institution's current accreditation status with the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority for specific technical certifications. It is advisable to confirm the validity of specific ICAO-recognised course modules and the current availability of simulator-based training hardware. Verification of the school's standing as an Approved Training Organisation is essential for students seeking licences valid for commercial operations.
