ARSA’s management firm has updated the site through which the association’s training sessions are available.
Still located at potomaclaw.inreachce.com, the system allows for immediate registration, easy access to session materials, and certificate management for registrants. The updates improve search functionality and mobile capability, providing easy access to content regardless of the individual’s platform. Holders of existing training accounts may access the new platform using their current credentials; all session history remains in each user’s “My products.”

ARSA’s online training program represents its most-valuable benefit to the aviation industry: knowledge gained through training and experience. The association’s team has turned its decades of work on behalf of aviation maintenance into more than 80 hours of on-demand content.
While sessions are available for registration at any time – ARSA member discounts available – companies can also incorporate the association’s training into their regular programs:
(1) Subscription. Make up-front, bulk purchases of training hours. The details of each subscription can be customized, including focus on specific subject areas (e.g., human factors) or options for specially-priced session access after the initial hours have been used. The basic training subscription is $5,000 for 100 hours of unrestricted training to be used for 52 weeks, but different options are available depending on specific needs.
(2) Training Sponsorship. A company name, logo, and description associated with a live session (which becomes an on-demand recording) or an existing on-demand session for the duration of its time in the association’s catalogue. The duration of the advertising is as long as the training session remains active in the catalogue (most training sessions remain active until a regulatory change takes place). Advertising company employees get free access to the training content, an immediate return on your advertising investment. Training session sponsorships start at $3,500.
(3) Tailored training. Contract ARSA’s management firm Obadal, Filler, MacLeod & Klein, P.L.C. to produce or modify training specific to your organization. The team can then re-record it (or offer it as a separate live session) for ARSA’s training program. Tailored programs are priced differently from ARSA’s hourly rate and are administered by OFM&K, which allows for a client engagement and related attorney-client privilege for all discussion. Tailored training prices vary depending on length and delivery, e.g., in-person or online.

Benefits: Registration for an ARSA-provided training session includes:

- A certificate* upon completion of the session as well as any required test material.
*Only registered participants are eligible to receive a completion certificate for each session. Certificates are delivered automatically via email after the completion criteria – usually viewing the session and submitting an associated test – are met.
OFM&K Training Portal: All of ARSA’s training sessions are provided through OFM&K’s training portal. As the training provider of choice for ARSA and a trusted resource for the aviation community, the firm’s training materials represent a vital tool for entities pursuing regulatory compliance and business success.
