OMNI Aviation Training Center (OATC) was created in 1998 as a department of the OMNI Aviação e Tecnologia, SA. In 2003, with the introduction of JAR-FCL standards, OMNI obtained JAR-FCL certification as a Flight Training Organization (FTO) and Type Rating Training Organization (TRTO) in September 2004. In September 2007, OMNI Aviation Training Center became an independent company, not only due to the rapid growth of OMNI Group, but also due to the increasing number of students as a result of the experience acquired over the years. At the same time, has obtained its own JAR-FCL certificate, thus managing to expand the capabilities in order to guarantee the autonomy to satisfy all training demands inside the OMNI Group as well as the demands from other Aviation companies in Portugal and the rest of the World.
