Evaluation of Personnel Training System in an Organization

Personnel training is crucial for enhancing organizational performance and achieving strategic objectives. Evaluating training programs involves analyzing the knowledge gained, skills acquired, and overall employee development. This evaluation helps determine whether financial investments in training are justified and predicts the rationality of further investments.This research aims to evaluate training programs in airlines, focusing on their unique training systems and developing recommendations for improvement. The study has three main objectives:• Explore theoretical aspects of personnel training systems in modern enterprises, emphasizing the concept of a learning organization.• Analyze and evaluate existing personnel training programs through case studies of two organizations.• Develop recommendations to enhance the effectiveness of personnel training systems.The analysis of theoretical aspects and existing training systems highlights current strengths and weaknesses. Based on these insights, specific recommendations have been developed to improve personnel training programs. These guide HR managers in optimizing training practices and fostering continuous improvement, enhancing individual performance, and contributing to the organization's strategic objectives.

SCOPE 3 GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING FRAMEWORK FOR AN AIRLINE COMPANY

This research focuses on Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions in the context of an airline company. In light of sustainability, organizations are increasingly looking to understand their impact on climate change across their operations, products, and value chain. Greenhouse gas (GHG) emission accounting and reporting provide the necessary baseline data to implement effective sustainability and cost reduction strategies. Scope 3 emissions, as defined by the GHG Protocol, result from the use of assets not owned or controlled by the reporting entity but indirectly influence its value chain. For airlines, these emissions include GHGs associated with all purchased raw materials and emissions from the use of equipment during its useful life. This research aims to design an accounting and reporting framework to begin assessing Scope 3 emissions for the national Latvian airline company, Air Baltic Corporation AS. This framework serves as a methodological basis and practical guide, enabling the company to align its strategy with sustainable development goals and quantify the potential impact of Scope 3 emissions across its value chain.

Application of an autonomous taxiing system, on a medium-range passenger aircraft

Currently, among the issues that most concern airlines are controlling operating costs and reducing harmful impacts on the environment.One solution to reduce fuel costs and reduce environmental impact is the use of an electric green taxiing system, which can save several hundred thousand dollars per aircraft per year, thereby increasing overall business profitability while reducing the negative impact on the environment. Wednesday.This bachelor's thesis proposes an autonomous aircraft taxiing system based on the EGTS concept, however, it is proposed to use a hydromechanical system rather than electric motors to drive the landing gear wheels.The work presents a design solution for this system for a designed prototype aircraft and calculation of the main parameters of the taxiing system. This system may have practical applications.

Artificial intelligence for crew scheduling in aviation sector

This research aims to relive the factors on applying AI in crew scheduling and rostering on low-cost airlines, IndiGO Airlines was chosen as base, to minimize the time and effort of human resources and increase effectiveness. This research looks into the possibility of utilizing artificial intelligence proposed model to schedule through a decision support system to reduce mistake from human intervention. Techniques employed includes of extensive literature searches, six qualitative interviews with two respondents per industry and 109 quantitative online surveys for crew scheduling department respondents. The data collected from the survey was analyzed and presented in the form of graphs to ease interpretation of the this research by concentrating on the challenges and costs involved in Artificial Intelligence. Thus, the techniques such as Data reduction and abduction logic have been used to find the sound information out of the whole set of information.From the survey results and interview questions, there are major benefits of incorporating AI in crew scheduling and rostering. The study also presents the best approach that low-cost airlines can adopt to lower errors and uphold performance, effectively showing that the adoption of AI in the industry is significantly beneficial

Key factors of financial resilience in the market segment of full service carriers in crises

This thesis focuses on a detailed analysis of the financial resilience factors within the airlines of the full-service market segment. The thesis is based on exploring the factors that enable airlines to manage and recover from disruptions effectively. By examining the airline industry's response to the disruptions, the thesis shows important elements such as financial stability, operational agility, strategic foresight, and important management methodologies to survive crises. Additionally, important factors and important strategies and scenarios will be shown to survive and to be resilient within crises. Furthermore, the role of governmental aids and their methods, in the form of financial aid and flexibility, is examined and also shows the importance in lowering negative economic effects for the industry in crisis. The thesis also shows how important effective collaboration between airlines, regulatory authorities, and other stakeholders can help to manage crises effectively. Taking all this into account, the thesis is to show how financial resilience in the airline industry can be described in different ways. Moreover, it reveals the importance of strategic planning in network, operation and finance to handle further crises in future.
