Air traffic controller (ATC) students must learn meteorology, including decoding weather data (METAR, TAF, SIGMET, AIRMET) and understanding adverse weather impacts like thunderstorms and turbulence. ATC trainees should integrate weather data into air traffic services, relaying information and using techniques like rerouting to avoid hazardous conditions.
