Course Description:

Applicants for an instructor certificate shall complete a course of theoretical knowledge and flight instruction. The course shall include the elements described hereafter for each category of instructor.

PREREQUISITES:

Before start the course the trainee has to comply with the prerequisites stated in the FCL.915 and FCL.915.TRI or FCL.915.SFI according to the course attended.

COURSE SUMMARY:

Course

SFI

8 days (55hrs)

Training: 6 FFS (24 hrs)

Checking: 1 FFS (4hrs)

TRI (FFS only)

8 days (55hrs)

Training: 6 FFS (24 hrs)

Checking: 1 FFS (4hrs)

COURSE PROGRAM:

(FCL.930.TRI & AMC 1 FCL.930.TRI)

The course will be divided into 2 Modules and is designed to accommodate groups of 3 IT (Instructor Trainees) in batches for a minimum course size of 6 and maximum 9.

Module A.	Core Course (same for TRI/SFI):
Module A.	o Teaching & Learning:	5 days in classroom (36 Hrs)
Module B.	Type Specific:
Module B.	o Technical knowledge: o Application training: o Practical:	1 day Distance Learning (5 Hrs) 2 days in classroom (14 Hrs) 1 x 4 Hrs FBS session plus 6 x 4 Hrs FFS sessions

Each Instructor Trainee will receive

7 hours giving instruction from the instructor station under the supervision of a qualified TRI;
7 hours of In-seat Instruction including UPRT under the supervision of a qualified TRI;
6 hours of pilot skills practice.

Note: Each Simulator sessions are organised as follow:

1h30 hour briefing;
4 hours Simulator divided into 3 x 70 mins blocks with 2 x 10 min breaks and a 10 min reserve for flying skills;
1 hour de-briefing including video feedback.

Simulator Details are programmed as follow:

A330 FFS: 5, 6, 7 and 8 (UPRT) or equivalent program covering the same manoeuvres;
A320 FFS: 5, 6, 7 and 8 (UPRT) or equivalent program covering the same manoeuvres;

Assessment of Competence: At the end of the practical simulator phase, an assessment of competence is required in a FFS session of 4 hours.

COURSE DETAILS:

The Courses attended within the LMQ ATO are based on the following four principles:

Systematic method of Training

The core purpose of training is to address a need though the achievement of clear training objectives. These objectives are identified by task and role analysis that generate the knowledge, skills and attitudes the trainee is required to acquire in order to meet the need. The optimum process for ensuring trainees acquire these training objectives is developed and further refined through effective evaluation.

Multi-dimensional learning

The training will utilize multiple innovative and effective training techniques in order to ensure trainees are efficiently trained to the highest standards possible, rather than a few standard methods of instruction. Latest learning theories and the human factors of training will be incorporated into all training activities.

Developing core competencies

The training will ensure that not only specific tasks, but the pilot core competencies, that include the principles of Crew Resource Management, are demonstrated by trainees, who will not progress to the next phase of training until these have been achieved to the required standard.

Simplicity, clarity and practicality

Learning a new task or role in a relatively short period of time is extremely challenging in itself, so both the content and the process must simple, clear and practical, so trainees are neither stressed nor overwhelmed.
