Development of a Training Policy and Training Programme
Austrian CAA
Accordingly, airsight developed on behalf of the Austrian Federal Ministry of Transport the mandatory Training Policy and Programme, as well as a Training Plan, ensuring that the CAA employees are well-trained for their activities.
Aerodrome oversight is one of the main responsibilities of the CAA. It aims to assess and monitor the compliance of the aerodromes infrastructures and operations to national and international regulations, as well as to ensure that the highest priority is given to safety.
Well-trained employees are the basis for target-oriented and successful activities of the CAA. Therefore the qualification of the employees of the CAA is among others one important aspect assessed by the ICAO within its Universal Safety Oversight Audit Programme (USOAP). During the audits of this programme, ICAO Auditors survey and review the fulfilment of the Convention obligations by the contracting states. The most common identified findings during the audits are deficiencies in the qualification of technical personnel and the training programme of the CAAs as well as the non-existence of periodic training plans and training records.
Based on airsight’s wide experience gained during the provision of numerous expert-trainings as well as our extended knowledge about the structure and operation of different CAAs, airsight supports its customers in the development of integrated training concepts. Within the development of the training concepts, all relevant ICAO requirements as well as specific national regulations are taken into account.
