accreditation FINAL INTERVIEW workshop as part of the
66th Annual AIRPORT MANAGEMENT Short course

The Southwest Chapter of AAAE will be hosting the Accreditation Final Interview Workshop in person on Saturday, January 31, 2026 at the 66th Annual Airport Management Short Course in Monterey, California.

During this one-day workshop, candidates will learn how to better prepare for the accreditation final interview, which is required to earn their A.A.E. Taught by our Chapter's AAAE Board of Examiner representative, attendees will gain a firm understanding of what executives are looking for during these interviews. The workshop will cover important topics to review, study tips, format of the interview, sample interview questions and evaluation of responses, composition of the evaluation panel, and more. Most importantly, attendees take part in mock interviews and receive constructive feedback on their answers and delivery.

The workshop will take place from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The registration fee of $350 member/$400 non-member includes breakfast, lunch & workshop handouts. Dress for this meeting is business casual.
