The OPITO Helicopter Administrator Training (HATS) E-Learning (7055) course is designed for offshore personnel preparing to be appointed as Helicopter Administrators (Heli Admin). This e-learning program equips participants with the essential knowledge and skills to support the Helideck Landing Officer (HLO) and helideck team members, focusing on core administrative responsibilities such as flight planning, manifesting, hazardous goods handling, and check-in processes for passengers and freight.

The course is intended for those about to take on the Heli Admin role or who have not yet completed a workplace competence assessment. It serves as the theoretical component of the OPITO Heli Admin qualification; full certification also requires offshore workplace training and assessment to ensure candidates are fully prepared for both the administrative and operational demands of the position.

With OPITO e-learning, participants benefit from total flexibility—training can be completed anytime, anywhere, and the certificate is delivered by email upon completion. The certificate holds the same value as on-site training, and no specific prerequisites, medicals, or validity period are stated in the available course details.
