CFM56 & LEAP: Product of Advanced Technology
Every component of the advanced CFM56 & LEAP powerplant is the result of millions of dollars in research
investment, hundreds of engineering minds, and hours of rigorous testing. CFM's industry leadership is thankful
for the support of our two parent companies, Safran Aircraft Engines and GE Aviation.
Both companies are recognized for their technological expertise. Safran Aircraft Engines engineers have
accumulated a portfolio of over 5,000 patents. GE employs 27,000 technologists and 2,600 scientists at its four
global research centers.
Determined to build on our legacy of technology, CFM is looking to the future as our researchers advance
technologies like aerodynamics and combustion for our next-generation engine.

Our primary training mission is to provide classroom and hands-on instruction to Airline Customers who own and
operate CFM International Products. Customers must have a General Terms Agreement (GTA) or other service
support contracts allowing them to be eligible to attend training courses.
The GTA or other support agreements will specify if a customer is eligible to receive identified training at no cost
and, if so, assign a number of training credits. These credits are usually in units of student days and are
deducted based on the length of the course and number of students attending. For example, two students
attending a five-day course would deduct 10 student day credits from the customer’s training entitlements.
Customers who have used all of their training entitlements, or those whose contract allows for receipt of training
but does not provide training credits, may purchase courses at the current training rate.
