Alexandria, Va. – The American Association of Airport Executives (AAAE), in collaboration with its exclusive partner Blank Slate Technologies, announces an agreement with Signature Aviation to adopt the Blank Slate mobile app as a core platform for recurrent and supplemental training in operations, safety, and compliance across its global workforce of 6,000 frontline employees.
The innovative Blank Slate app leverages artificial intelligence and cognitive science to transform mandatory training, policies, and regulatory content into brief, customized exam questions tailored to each employee. This progressive approach ensures maximum knowledge retention while requiring minimal time investment, addressing the unique needs of busy aviation professionals operating in a high-stakes, zero-fail environment.
A pilot program deploying the Blank Slate app across multiple Signature Aviation locations worldwide demonstrated measurable improvements in employees’ ability to recall critical training content and policies in less than 90 days. Remarkably, these outcomes were achieved with frontline workers engaging with the app for less than five minutes per week.
“We are thrilled to implement Blank Slate, an innovative tool that will enhance our culture with a safety-first mindset among our team members. Blank Slate will revolutionize our training approach, giving our team members the information they need, when it matters, to make every second exceptional for our guests and residents,” noted Ed Brennan, vice president of people development at Signature Aviation.
"Leading aviation firms like Signature Aviation recognize that modern training methods are essential for meeting evolving operational and regulatory demands," said Kyle Herbig, AAAE’s vice president of airport solutions. "Through our partnership with Blank Slate, we provide this app to airports and aviation organizations, combining our widely recognized training programs with advanced technology to enhance safety, efficiency, and compliance."
"We couldn't be more excited to partner with Signature Aviation and are thrilled to be deploying our defense-grade technology to enhance operational outcomes with a recognized industry leader," added Matt Trevithick, Blank Slate's chief executive officer. "We're fortunate to have such a great partner in AAAE, which has been instrumental in facilitating this new deployment."
The app’s advanced capabilities also provide organizational leaders with real-time performance insights, enabling them to identify areas of greatest risk for forgetting, proactively address them, and use these trends to predict when incidents may occur, thereby enhancing overall operational readiness.
