Private aviation company VistaJet announced Wednesday that it is the first business aviation operator in the world to achieve certification for baseline Evidence-Based Training (EBT) for its flight crews.

EBT is a data-driven training methodology developed by the International Air Transport Association (IATA), endorsed by the U.N.’s International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), and recognized by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). It relies on adaptive instruction and is meant to prioritize critical thinking, resilience, and real-world performance over rote practice.
