About the Course

Drive performance with meaningful metrics that matter.

This course equips aviation professionals with the knowledge and tools to select, design, and implement Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that truly reflect airline performance. You’ll explore the different types of airline KPIs — Safety, Financial, and Lean — and learn how to use them to support both strategic goals and day-to-day operations through Strategic and Operational metrics.

You'll learn to distinguish between Lagging indicators (based on past events, like low probability–high severity or frequent low-impact occurrences) and Leading indicators (proactive signals that help prevent issues and guide continuous improvement).

Through practical frameworks like the SMART criteria, you'll gain a deeper understanding of how to select KPIs that drive impact, avoid vanity metrics, and foster a KPI-driven culture across your organization.
