In response to many attendee requests, and at the suggestion of Mr. Ladislav Mika, of the Czech Ministry of Transport, SCSI is now bringing the popular Certificate in Aircraft Accident Investigation and Certificate in Safety Management Systems to Prague.

Starting in 2003 SCSI offered in cooperation with the Czech Ministry of Transport the first series of courses that will enable attendees to earn these certificates from SCSI by attending courses in Prague which is conveniently located in Central Europe. In 2010 SCSI will continue bringing courses to Prague that apply to SCSI's Certificate Programs. For those attendees who have taken courses at other SCSI locations, courses taken at any SCSI location count for credit in the applicable Certificate Program.
