Beloit, Wis. / Bristol, England Thursday, 29 May 2025 Comply365, LLC (“Comply365”), a leading global provider of operational content, safety and training management solutions for the global aviation industry, today announced a new research initiative focused on how next-generation, AI-powered technologies can transform Advanced Qualification Program (AQP) practices across the aviation industry. This exciting initiative which forms part of the company’s wider AI strategy, reinforces Comply365’s commitment to modernizing Training Management Systems (TMS) and shaping the future of training for its global aviation customer base.
The AI initiative focused on AQP will directly support the evolution of Comply365’s Fox Training Management platform, already trusted by a wide range of airlines in North America and across the globe, for managing complex AQP workflows. By embedding intelligent, data-driven capabilities, this initiative aims to unlock new levels of efficiency, safety, and regulatory confidence in airline training programs.
As a collaborative industry approach, the research will draw on the expertise of Comply365’s Global Advisory Board, comprised of highly experienced Chief Pilots and leaders from across aviation operations and safety, alongside input from current airline customers operating under AQP. Together, these stakeholders will help to shape the research priorities, validate emerging AI approaches, and ensure that outcomes are grounded in operational relevance.
The Compy365 AQP AI initiative is focused on improving key aspects of aviation training management by:
- Delivering deeper insights into training effectiveness and performance trends
- Reducing manual workloads to improve operational efficiency
- Supporting more personalized and adaptive learning experiences
- Enhancing transparency and responsiveness in compliance reporting.
Craig Drew of the Comply365 Global Advisory Board and former SVP Air Operations at Southwest Airlines stated “This AI initiative by Comply365 represents a pivotal step forward in aligning AQP with the dynamic demands of modern aviation. By harnessing AI to generate actionable insights and reduce training and operational complexity, we have a real opportunity to elevate training outcomes, enhance safety, and support a more adaptive, performance-driven culture across the aviation industry.”
Ilia Kostov, CEO of Comply365 also stated “We see tremendous opportunity to evolve AQP into a more agile, data-informed framework that not only ensures compliance but also fuels training effectiveness and performance improvements. By integrating AI and automation, we aim to enable our customers to unlock training insights and improvements that traditional systems cannot deliver at the same pace or to the same standard.”
Findings and prototypes developed through the research will be shared with industry through conferences including Compy365’s customer conference, Connections365, and its Customer Advisory Board, reflecting the company’s mission to empower customers with intelligent solutions that deliver significant efficiencies and operational improvements. A first unveiling of the AQP AI initiative will take place at the Connections365 conference in Dallas this coming September.
Comply365’s ongoing investment in AI, including the AQP AI initiative, is part of a wider innovation strategy backed by the company’s world-class investors, Insight Partners and Liberty Hall Capital Partners.
