Etihad Cargo said the hub is the air cargo industry’s first logistics training academy developed by an airline.

Focus on standards

The Excellence Hub is designed to standardise training across Etihad Cargo’s global partner network and strengthen operational, safety and compliance standards.

The platform will cover Etihad Cargo operating standards, product and service frameworks, safety and compliance modules aligned with international regulations, and certified industry programmes developed with accredited institutions.

“As the first logistics training academy established by an airline, it represents a significant step forward in how we approach knowledge, capability, and service quality across our global network," said Stanislas Brun, Chief Cargo Officer at Etihad Airways. "By bringing together operational expertise, industry knowledge, and accredited learning pathways in one platform, the Excellence Hub will help raise capability standards across the global air cargo ecosystem.”

Courses, badges and AI learning

The platform includes foundation courses, podcasts, masterclasses and executive education programmes, including a miniMBA. Users will receive accredited certifications after completing each learning path.

Etihad Cargo has also added gamification features, including a points-based leaderboard and LinkedIn badges, to encourage participation and track progress.

The hub uses AI-enabled learning to provide personalised feedback and real-time analytics. Its mobile-first design allows users to access training from different locations.

Complimentary access will be offered to university students, giving future aviation and logistics talent a route into a global air cargo learning community.
