Central American Institute of Aeronautical Training

The Central American Institute for Aeronautical Training – ICCAE – headquartered in El Salvador, is one of the three management offices that make up COCESNA, whose purpose is to lead the aeronautical training processes in the Central American region for COCESNA personnel, its Member States and other external clients, all with the purpose of strengthening the competencies of aeronautical professionals, complying with the standards and methods contained in the Annexes and Documents of ICAO and the Regulations of the States.
