MESSAGE
FROM THE
PROGRAMME
EXECUTIVE
Dear Graduates,
Plans have been shattered for everyone with the global pandemic and it is perhaps
the biggest disruption most, if not all of us, will ever face in our lifetime and as
we navigate through uncharted territory, air transport will undoubtedly be at the
forefront of the world’s economic rebirth when countries get over the height of the
pandemic.
Even in these times of skepticism and uncertainty, there is still hope. There is good
reason to celebrate this year’s 142 AMPAP graduates who come from 61 airport
organizations that are in 42 countries worldwide. For the majority, AMPAP is not
just another vehicle to receive a nice-to-have diploma, rather, the Programme is a
platform to propel its participants as enablers and game changers who stand behind
the best practices, procedures, applications, and infrastructure that foster significant,
innovative contributions within their airport enterprise and in our industry worldwide.
While the pandemic has heightened our awareness of fluid conditions for the
future, recipients of the International Airport Professional (IAP) and the AMPAP
Associate diplomas and designation are among those who join the ranks of leaders
who generate energy and enthusiasm. We are proud of them and believe these
sharpened, “future-wise” individuals can be key players to ignite the change their
organizations need to confront the uncertainty and turbulent times before us.
Pierre Coutu
A.A.E., Ed.D., FRAeS
Programme Executive,
Global ACI-ICAO AMPAP
From the immediate impact of the pandemic crisis to establishing measures to
rebuild some traffic in a safe and efficient manner, ICAO, ACI, and multitudes of
global teams have already been meaningfully contributing to these efforts. However,
the fundamental challenge lies in rethinking new business models for the aviation
system and its service providers, including airports, airlines, air navigation service
providers, and aircraft manufacturers. All aviation enterprises must now re-work their
Strategic Business Plans and Infrastructure/Asset Plans but to predict the rate and
nature of recovery is near impossible due to the very nature of the global pandemic.
Juxtapose that with such megatrends as environmental challenges, global power
shifts, and the advent of revolutionary technologies and one can only envisage going
forward with a series of plausible futures for any business strategy.
As we approach the 14th anniversary since ACI and ICAO joined forces to launch AMPAP with the view to developing and
augmenting systemic thinking among executive managers in the aviation community, this unique, advanced management
competency development programme has proven its value to executives worldwide in 116 countries where hundreds of
airport organizations have been paying attention.
In spite of the havoc to our industry, we humbly believe that advocating for AMPAP to become an integral part of the
Competency Building Master Plans in airport enterprises worldwide would complement and strengthen their positioning
to focus on the hardships and opportunities over a longer period of time. In our role of Programme Administrator, we are
also tirelessly committed to doing better on various fronts, including making the Programme more universally available
to participants from LDCs and working to increase gender participation of women beyond the 25% intake to date.
Heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to the 2020 Graduating Class!

The Global Airport Management Professional Accreditation Programme
(AMPAP) seeks to develop airport managers through a curriculum that
covers all functional aspects of the airport business in key areas such
as operations, safety, security, finance, commercial management and
airport planning and development. The AMPAP curriculum consists of 4
mandatory and 2 elective courses and emphasizes adherence to uniform
standards and recommended best industry practices, while facilitating a
cross-cultural learning environment for its participants.
Since the launch of AMPAP in 2007, the entry course, “Air Transport
System” has been conducted multiple times across the globe, attracting an
active community of airport managers from all continents. AMPAP proudly
recognizes its graduates who bear the International Airport Professional
(IAP) designation and those who receive the AMPAP Associate Diploma
which is reserved for stakeholder organizations.
