New account setup
How do I create my IATA Training account?
Please create your IATA Training Account on the IATA Customer Portal.
Watch our How to videos which will explain how to create a new Training Account.
Why do I need to create an IATA Training account?
Our online registration process requires you to have an IATA Training Account to register for all training courses and exams.
Which information will I need to provide when I create my IATA Training Account?
You will be asked to provide your contact information, birth date (day and month) and nationality. IATA will use this information for identification purposes only, and your personal information will not be shared or sold to third parties. Read our privacy policy.
I have already attended a Classroom session and/or taken a Self-study / Partner-taught classroom course but do not have an IATA Training account. Do I need to create one?
Yes. You will need an IATA Training account to register for all future classes and exams and must create it yourself. Creating an IATA Training account is simple, and you will only have to do this once.
Can I create a user account without an email address?
You must have a valid email address to create a user account. If you do not have an email address, we recommend you create one using a free domain such as Hotmail, Gmail or Yahoo.
I would like to attend a Classroom session and purchase a Self-study / Partner-taught product. Do I need to create two IATA Training accounts?
No. Your IATA Training account can be used for all future registrations and payments.
How long does it take to create an IATA Training account?
It takes about five minutes to create an IATA Training Account, and you can register for courses and exams immediately after creating your account.
My IATA Training profile is prompting me to select my company from a list where my company does not appear. How do I add it?
If your company name and/or location do not appear in the selection list, please make a request to create a new company profile. If your company benefits from member pricing or discounts, please wait for the IATA Training team to validate your request before completing your registration.
How can I bill my company instead of myself as an individual for my Training product?
Before purchasing your course, you will need to link yourself to a company in the Training Platform (LMS) by clicking the ‘Belong to a company’ link under ‘My profile’ or click the relevant link on the Training Platform (LMS) purchase page prior to finalizing your purchase (there is no link between the Customer Portal account link and the Training Platform (LMS) company link). In the latter case once the company is selected, refresh the purchase page. A dropdown will appear so you can choose who is to be invoiced.
Why am I asked to provide both my personal and company email addresses?
We use your personal email address as our primary means of contact. Your company email address will be kept on file in order to verify your employment status and provide membership pricing when applicable.
The system blocks me when trying to provide a new email address, telling me to reach out to Customer Service?
The Customer Portal has found 2 users with the same email address but different names, so requires a manual intervention to check the correct name.
Please open a case in the Customer Portal and attach a picture of your passport page showing your name (or other allowable ID document) and quote the new email address you are trying to update to so one of our Customer Service Representative can update your email address.
The system blocks me when trying to provide a new email address, telling me not to use shared/generic email addresses, what should I do?
Indeed, only individual email addresses are to be used for identification. Please use your own individual email address and refer to the previous answer if insufficient to move forward.
How do I link my Customer Portal user to my IATA Training account in the Training Platform (LMS)?
Most Training Platform (LMS) users have been linked to the Customer Portal automatically. There may be a few exceptions, including users who did not have a valid verified email address in the Training Platform (LMS).
In order to cater to these exceptions, at the end of the Training registration process in the Customer Portal, you will be asked if you already have a Training username and userID. Provide both of these and follow the instructions to link the systems.
Watch our How to videos which will explain how to link your Training Account.
