Training

YYC Grid System

** This course must be viewed in the Google Chrome browser.**

The Air Terminal Building, or ATB, is quite large and uses a grid system for identifying specific locations and coordinates. Knowing how to use this system will be vital to effective communication between IOC staff and those who rely on the grid to respond to incidents, hazards, maintenance requests and emergencies within the ATB.

Most roles that report to, and parties that interact with the Integrated Operations Centre, or IOC, use the grid on a daily basis. When a grid reference is used to coordinate a response, all parties involved can ensure they are aligned. After completing this course, you will have a better idea of how to use the grid and how it applies to your role.

Once the course is complete, the final certificate must be printed and submitted to your Supervisor. Should you require assistance or have any questions regarding this program, please email thesource@yyc.com .

The Hidden disabilities sunflower program

The Hidden Disabilities Sunflower is a globally recognized tool providing individuals with invisible disabilities more support. We are proud to be welcoming the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Program to YYC this summer.

What is a hidden disability?

  • A hidden disability is one that is not immediately obvious, so you may not always be able to tell if an individual has a hidden disability.
  • There are many different types of hidden disabilities – from learning difficulties and chronic or mental health conditions, to mobility, speech, cognitive, hearing, or visual impairments.

What is the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower ?

  • It is a globally recognized tool that provides an opportunity for those with invisible disabilities to get more support along their journey while they travel through the airport.
  • The Sunflower icon is a yellow sunflower on a green background, and indicates that the person wearing it, or someone with them, has a hidden disability and may need some support, understanding, or simply a little more time.

What should you do if you see someone wearing the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower?

  1. Ask if you can help.
  2. Be kind.
  3. Listen closely.
  4. Have patience.
  5. Do not judge.
  6. Show respect.
