​Ο Νίκος Ιεροδιακόνου εργοδοτήθηκε από την Cyprus Airways το 1985 όπου παρέμεινε μέχρι τις 9 Ιανουαρίου 2015, ημερομηνία την οποία η Cyprus Airways έπαυσε να λειτουργεί. Υπηρετώντας σε διάφορες θέσεις τα τελευταία 15 χρόνια, ο Νίκος ήταν ο ένας εκ των δύο εκπαιδευτών του προσωπικού της Cyprus Airways και προσωπικό από διάφορες άλλες εταιρίες και οργανισμούς για τα θέματα των Dangerous Goods Regulations και Cargo.

Η εμπλοκή του με το συγκεκριμένο εκπαιδευτικό αντικείμενο τον έκανε ειδικευμένο στο αντικείμενο αυτό. Η ειδικότητά του ενισχύεται από το γεγονός ότι συνέχισε κατάρτιση του σε αυτά τα ευαίσθητα θέματα των επικίνδυνων εμπορευμάτων για τις αεροπορικές μεταφορές και ήταν πάντα ενημερωμένος με όλες τις πληροφορίες σχετικά με τις συνεχείς αλλαγές, νέες νομοθεσίες και διεθνείς κανονισμούς που διέπουν τα ζητήματα αυτά.

Ο Νίκος Ιεροδιακόνου στη μακρά σταδιοδρομία του στον τομέα της εκπαίδευσης και της κατάρτισης, απέκτησε πολλά διπλώματα και πιστοποιητικά από διεθνείς οργανισμούς, συμπεριλαμβανομένης της ΙΑΤΑ που ενισχύουν εκπαιδευτικές δεξιότητες, τις γνώσεις και την εμπειρία του από τη μετάδοση αυτής της γνώσης στους άλλους από το ευαίσθητο αυτό θέμα στον κλάδο των αερομεταφορών.

Τώρα ο κ. Νίκος Ιεροδιακόνου, είναι εκπαιδευτής στην Airtravel Aviation Academy Cyprus.
