As part of its dedication to education in all the fields related to space safety, the Foundation supports the creation of specialized centres of education and training in space safety around the globe, and contributes to initiatives that foster awareness and development of professional excellence. They go under the collective name of ISSF Space Safety Academy.
One main centre and three locations are currently envisaged to cover respectively the regions of Far-East, Europe/Middle-East/Africa, and Americas. The main criterium being for the centres to be centrally located within 6-hours’ regional time zones, such to allow, in addition to international in-class courses, opportunities for distance-learning in cooperation with universities and space organizations in the region.
