Live Animal Transportation: Every Journey Deserves Care

Animals are not ordinary cargo. Their safety and welfare depend on the people responsible for their journey.


Every day, live animals travel by air across the world. From family pets and service animals to animals transported for conservation, breeding or scientific purposes, each journey requires careful planning, appropriate handling and professional attention.


Live animals have specific needs that must be considered throughout the transportation process. Temperature, ventilation, handling conditions, journey duration and unnecessary delays can all affect their welfare.


Safe transportation begins long before the aircraft takes off and well-trained personnel play an essential role at every stage.



Supporting Competence Through eLearning

Airport College International’s Live Animals Regulations (LAR) eLearning course provides essential knowledge for personnel involved in transporting and handling live animals by air.


Based on the IATA Live Animals Regulations, the course is designed for airline personnel, ground handling staff, cargo agents, freight forwarders and other professionals involved in the transportation process.


The course is available online 24/7, allowing employees to study at their own pace, wherever they are and around their working schedules.


Initial training and recurrent learning help employees develop and maintain the knowledge needed to handle live animals safely, humanely and responsibly.


Flexible Training with an eCertificate

The Live Animals Regulations eLearning course takes approximately one hour to complete.


After successfully passing the final test, participants receive an eCertificate confirming completion of the course.


For organisations, eLearning offers a flexible and efficient way to deliver consistent training across multiple locations while supporting training requirements and workforce competence.


Course Pricing and Registration

The course fee is €80 per participant, with volume discounts available for more than 10 participants.


Whether you are training one employee or an entire team, Airport College International offers a practical and cost-effective way to strengthen the knowledge behind safe live animal transportation.
