“More than a course. A training system built for practice.”
Our mission is simple:
To help clinicians build durable airway skills through deliberate practice, immersive learning design, and an accessible global community.”
“People would be missing out if they don’t check out The Protected Airway Site.” – Scott Weingart, MD.
EXPLORE → LEARN PRACTICE → PERFORM
A system designed for performance under pressure.
Stop Drowning In Airway Content. Start Building Durable Skills.
Digital resources deliver information, but don’t build performance. Courses create momentum, but are expensive and episodic. Without practice, skills fade.
The solution isn’t more content or more expensive courses. It’s a system that delivers resources designed for ongoing practice. One that makes developing lifelong airway skills affordable and accessible. The Protected Airway Collaborative is built to close that gap, turning learning into something you actually use, repeatedly, over time. A community you can return to. PAC is a training solution built for durable skills, not algorithms. It delivers high-quality airway training designed by experts and created for how clinicians actually learn.
How PAC Works
Start Online → Train Hands-On → Refine Live
The Website
This is where your training begins.
The PAC platform gives you immediate access to a structured airway learning system designed for continuous skill development, not one-time exposure.
Inside, you’ll find:
- Focused learning modules built around high-stakes airway scenarios
- A shared language compendium that aligns thinking, communication, and decision-making
- Ongoing airway updates that keep your practice current
- Practical tools and frameworks you can apply on your next shift
This is not a content library.
It’s a place to build understanding, develop consistency, and create a foundation you can return to over time.
You don’t just learn once and move on.
You revisit, reinforce, and refine.
This is where airway training becomes continuous.
This is where your system begins.
Integrated Hands-On Training
The platform doesn’t stop at online learning.
It turns any space into a training space.
We bring structured, high-impact airway training directly to you by extending the platform into the real world. Using the website as the backbone, and pairing it with enhanced infographic posters and simple equipment, we create integrated digital and physical learning spaces that can be set up anywhere, your department, your sim lab, your workspace.
You’re not waiting for the next course.
You’re building skills where you already work.
- Study key concepts in real time
- Practice techniques with intention
- Repeat and refine skills in your actual clinical environment
It’s like having a personal airway mentor available whenever you need it, guiding both what to learn and how to practice.
This is how training becomes accessible.
This is how practice becomes continuous.
Refine Live (Airway Works NYC + Events)
This is where your training deepens.
As a subscriber, you don’t just learn and practice on your own.
You have the opportunity to step into live, immersive training environments at Airway Works NYC and at events around the world, where your skills are refined with expert coaching.
- Focused sessions with real-time feedback
- High-stakes scenarios that challenge decision-making and execution
- Advanced skill refinement built on the same system you use online
This is not disconnected from the online platform.
It’s built on it.
When you arrive, you’re prepared, train with intention, and leave with clearer execution and a plan to continue improving.

Who We Are
The Protected Airway Collaborative is empowered by extraordinary people. They bring it to life. Our faculty isn’t just a few local instructors. We bring together leading clinicians, educators, and guest experts from around the world. A diverse and dynamic team enriches each learning space.. They are chosen not only for their clinical skill but also for their ability to teach and inspire, and they come from across disciplines.
We’re a passionate community of educators, clinicians, and innovators. We are united by one mission: to make airway education better, smarter, and more impactful. PAC was built on one simple truth: Airway knowledge means nothing if you can’t apply it in the moments that matter most.
The Protected Airway Collaborative exists to change how clinicians learn the most critical skills in medicine. Traditional airway education ends the moment a course does, leaving clinicians without the tools, structure, or support needed to maintain competence over time. We solve that problem by building a continuous learning ecosystem.
“A single lesson can inspire you. A learning ecosystem can transform you.”
We believe airway mastery isn’t an event. It’s a habit. A practice. A design challenge.
Our mission is to deliver durable, real-world skills through thoughtful educational engineering, grounded in human factors and built for the realities of modern clinical practice. By turning passive content into active, repeatable training opportunities, we empower clinicians to perform with confidence and clarity when the stakes are highest.
This is airway training, reimagined for the way people actually learn.

We’re a Community, Not a Specialty
At PAC, we believe airway mastery should not happen in isolation. We are stronger together. Each specialty and every clinical environment brings fresh insights and perspectives to our practice.
Most clinicians perform high-stakes airway procedures only occasionally. That means improvement rarely comes from individual experience alone. It comes from learning alongside others who care about the craft, who share techniques, and who continually refine how they approach the airway.
The Protected Airway Collaborative brings those people together.
PAC is a global community of clinicians who take airway management seriously. Emergency physicians, intensivists, anesthesiologists, paramedics, and trainees from around the world come together to study the airway, practice the techniques, and share the lessons learned from real patients.
When you join PAC, you enter a learning environment designed for clinicians who want more than occasional training. Inside the platform you can explore our immersive learning spaces, study airway concepts in depth, and connect them directly to hands-on practice in your own department.
You gain access to structured training built around deliberate practice, along with the tools and resources to build pop-up learning spaces wherever you work. The same environments used in our studio and live courses become available to you and your team.
Just as important, you become part of a community of airway enthusiasts who are committed to mastering the craft. Clinicians who believe airway management deserves focused practice, thoughtful discussion, and constant refinement.
