REGISTRATION CLOSES AT 9:00 A.M. ET ON JUNE 8.

Register today for ACC's Runway Incursion Mitigration and Airfield Geometry Design Virtual Workshop on June 8, 2023 from 10:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. EST. Breaks are provided throughout the day for the convenience of attendees to catch up on emails, grab lunch, and return calls.

The comprehensive workshop will cover the FAA’s Runway Incursion Mitigation (RIM) program and how it relates to airfield geometry. Participants will receive an overview of the RIM program, from how it started, the progress that has been made, and where it’s going through 2030 and beyond. This workshop will present real life examples of comprehensive taxiway studies completed through the lens of the RIM program. Participants will receive a deep dive into airfield geometry including taxiway and taxilane standards. Instructors will also discuss safety and object free areas to better understand the implementation of common geometry changes associated with incursion mitigation. Lastly, participants will participate in breakout sessions to review a historical airfield for runway incursion hot spots and geometry concerns in order to discuss potential short- and long-term mitigating measures.

Exciting news! 

As part of ACC's ongoing efforts to deliver the best experience for our members and customers, we have been working hard behind the scenes for 10 months to launch a new state-of-the-art AMS for you. 

Through the new AMS, you and your organization will gain convenient, streamlined, and self-service access to all of the ACC resources, services and benefits you need and want. Join and participate in an ACC committee, register for virtual training and in-person events, purchase a job ad, join ACC or renew your membership, and access the ACC online Membership Directory. Instantly update your individual account, add your photo, and those who are primary contacts for their organization can make updates for their company account at any time. You can track your credits/hours earned from attending ACC educational programs or sign-up for ACC newsletters. Organizations can easily add their company logo, purchase sponsorships, corporate training bundles, or become a highly visible CSP. And ACC assistance is just one click away.

Stay tuned for details as the new AMS will be launching in the next 30 days. If you created/used your ACC Training Hub account during the last 18 months, no worries on creating a new account in the new AMS. ACC will do that for you so you'll be all set when we transition from the Training Hub to the new AMS. In the interim, please feel free to reach out to training@acconline.org with any questions regarding your Training Hub account or how you will soon register for training via the new AMS vs. Training Hub.

The success of ACC would not be possible without our phenomenal members and valued aviation industry customers. Thank you!
