Aviation Training ManagementSystem (TMS)

An Aviation Training Management System — known industry-wide as a TMS or ATMS — is software that manages the academic and practical training pipeline at a flight school, ATO, or airline cadet program. A TMS tracks student progress through syllabi, records grades and competencies, manages homework and ground school, schedules training events, and ensures records meet regulatory requirements for FAA, EASA, UK CAA, CASA, and other authorities. Aviatize is an Aviation TMS / ATMS used by flight schools and ATOs in 47+ countries.

Aviatize is an Aviation TMS (also called an ATMS — Aviation Training Management System) with substantial built-in scope that overlaps the LMS boundary. The platform handles the full TMS scope — syllabi, scheduling, instructor grading, student progression, qualification tracking, and compliance records — plus a built-in exam and quiz module (question banks per subject, exam composition, individual or group assignment) and full ground-class tracking (sitting, attendance, progress checks, progress tests) suitable for EASA ATO theoretical knowledge requirements. What Aviatize does not deliver today is e-learning content streaming — video courseware, SCORM/xAPI modules, and content-consumption tracking are LMS-side capabilities. Schools and ATOs that need deep e-learning content libraries pair Aviatize with a dedicated aviation LMS (Pelesys, CAE Rise, Sheffield, GENIO, or another) for content delivery, while Aviatize remains the platform of record for syllabus progression, exams, grading, and audit-ready training records.

In aviation, 'FTMS' most commonly refers to a Flight Management System (FMS) Trainer — a desktop avionics training device, not training-school software. The software category for managing a flight school's training operation is universally called a TMS or ATMS (Training Management System / Aviation Training Management System). Aviatize is a TMS / ATMS for the operation of flight training — not an avionics FMS trainer.

Aviatize provides customizable syllabi for any program — PPL, CPL, IR, ATPL, type ratings, or ground school. Instructors grade students after each event using configurable criteria. The system tracks completion, flags exercises needing repetition, and provides progress graphs so you can identify struggling students early.

Yes. Create fully customizable syllabi for any training program. Define phases, lessons, exercises, grading criteria, and proficiency levels. Import pre-made syllabi from other systems or build from scratch. Syllabi can be strict (sequential) or flexible depending on your school's approach.

Yes. Aviatize supports competency-based training and assessment (CBTA) as recommended by ICAO and adopted by EASA. Track competencies alongside traditional grading and ensure students meet proficiency standards before progressing.

Yes — and this is where Aviatize stands out from training-only platforms. Billing and accounting are first-class citizens alongside training, scheduling, and maintenance. The Contract Management module models ab-initio programs, airline cadet contracts, VA Chapter 31/33 enrollments, and prepaid block-hour packages with three-tier allocations (Dual / Solo / Ground) filtered by aircraft type. As a student progresses through the syllabus, Aviatize auto-matches each session to the right allocation, recognizes deferred revenue per flight (not at package sale), and posts itemized line items to QuickBooks, Sage Intacct, or Exact Online in real time. Training managers keep their syllabus workflow exactly as it is; accounting managers get clean books from the source.

Aviatize pricing starts at $29 per aircraft per month with unlimited users. Training management, scheduling, billing, contract management, accounting integration, and maintenance are all included. A 30-day guided trial is available after a 30-minute fit call so we tailor it to your school.
