Objective
Train 90,000 employees on the vital importance of health, safety, security, and the environment at Dubai Airports.
Approach
Engaging airport training eLearning animations deployed via desktop and mobile applications.
The Problem
The brief from Dubai Airports stressed the need to teach each employee directly, maximizing their ability to retain and understand key information that would enable them to carry out their work professionally and safely. The wide variety of nationalities meant that the focus was on the use of visual over text or language.
The Solution
Airport Training via Bespoke eLearning Platform
SHIIFT created a bespoke airport training eLearning platform that housed six core modules addressing topics such as Operational Induction, Environmental Awareness, Accident Causation and a dedicated Testing module. The modular nature of the platform allows Dubai Airports to make changes to any individual module quickly and easily as well as being able to add new modules to the platform as a whole.
The outcome was an eLearning solution that worked for the nationalities and literacy levels of the trainees. It was made available in four languages, fully SCORM-compliant, and featured cutting-edge animation, film, and numerous interactive tasks. The platform was built in a secure manner to allow remote access to approved employees and protect private data.
An online eLearning platform for airport training hosted on a LAN was sourced via a web-portal for those working through the training offsite. Maximum running time of around 48 minutes with 6 key modules as follows:
Module 1 – Operation Induction
Module 2 – Environmental Awareness
Module 3 – Safety Awareness
Module 4 – Accident Causation
Module 5 – SUSA
Module 6 – Testing
A short multiple-choice interactive test (6 questions) was included at the end of each module to test users’ comprehension. Built-in analytics allowed managers to track which team members had completed all 6 modules and what parts were proving difficult so further training could be implemented.

The IMPACT
Significant ROI with cost per head of less than $1 per user. Thousands of employees have benefited from the engaging and educational experience and been able to be embedded into their respective teams quicker than ever.
This was a key factor in helping Dubai Airports to secure a place in the “Top 25 Airports in the World” in Skytrax’s World Airport Awards and being regarded by Skytrax as having some of the “Best Airport Staff” in the region.
With Dubai Airports contributing over $26 billion to the economy, every single one of these employees plays a crucial role in supporting 27% of Dubai’s GDP.
