BAA seems to develop personnel under airfield operations. You need to study birds, (feathered) how to scare them away, if not then learn to shoot a shot gun and take them out.
You will need to follow the CAA CAP 462 and Airside Operations Association safety book.
Other Modules will possibly cover speeding across airfields, looking important, collecting FOD, including lumps of mud and concrete.
You will be checking taxiway & runway lighting, this will include computer skills as you will be in charge of allocating stands for aircraft and when everyone on the airfield has organised their crews you can change them all around as this is what happens!!
The best part is telling people about their job, and issuing yellow cautions for speeding!
Marshalling if you want to learn, start at a small airfield with light aircraft, as you will find out the airfix model as it looks on the runway, grows to a big castle when it reaches the stand!!
Good luck.
