ATC Vantage has been trained and audited by  MITRE CAASD (Center for Advanced Aviation Systems Development to teach the MITRE SMS Courseware. Our comprehensive SMS training program was developed by the MITRE CAASD (Center for  Advanced Aviation Systems Development) in conjunction with the FAA.  MITRE was founded as a non-profit corporation to provide engineering and technical services to the federal government.   ATC Vantage is one of only a couple of companies who are licensed to teach the MITRE/FAA SMS Overview course.   Click here to for more information about MITRE CAASD (MITRE Aviation Institute) and MITRE's roll in aviation leadership.

FAA names MITRE as a resource in the SMS "Read-Me-First" Document" Reference Link - #9) MITRE Center for the Advanced Aviation System Development is a non-profit research organization used by the USA Government (IRS, Dept. of Defense, FAA, etc...)  for a variety of projects.

MITRE CAASD has a longstanding relationship (since 1958) with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Since 1958, the year MITRE first opened its doors, MITRE has helped the FAA address the nation’s most critical aviation issues. MITRE's role was enhanced in 1990 when the FAA created a Federally Funded Research and Development Center and selected MITRE to operate it. The new entity is the Center for Advanced Aviation System Development (CAASD). MITRE has years of experience in researching, teaching and implementing SMS at airlines, airports, ATC providers, maintenance shops and Civil Aviation Authorities worldwide. The MAI builds on CAASD's broad spectrum of knowledge to transform forty years of aviation experience into a world-class continuing education resource.

As the federally-funded research and development center for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), MITRE CAASD is dedicated to improving aviation system safety, security, and performance. In addition to the FAA, customers include the Transportation Security Administration, NASA, the Federal Communications Commission, and other government organizations. MITRE also performs work for international clients and conducts collaborative research with industry. Ultimately, MITRE serves the aviation community around the world.
