Training
“Key” to “Category”
Category 10 – addition of flight operations officer/flight dispatcher
Category 12 – addition of ‘Crew’
Competence based training

The components of a competency framework
1 - Competency unit. A discrete function consisting of a number of competency elements
For shippers: Perform pre-packaging assessment of shipment Pack dangerous goods Apply all consignment procedures Respond to requests

The components of a competency framework
1 - Competency unit. A discrete function consisting of a number of competency elements
For operators: Evaluate the offered shipment Perform acceptance check Handle dangerous goods Inspect packages and ULDs prior to loading and after unloading Provide information Prevent unauthorized dangerous goods cargo from being transported

2 - Competency element. An action that constitutes a task that has a triggering event and a terminating event that clearly defines its limits, and an observable outcome.
For “Perform acceptance check”: Verify provided documentation Verify packaging Verify applicable marking and labelling requirements

3 - Performance criteria. Simple, evaluative statements on the required outcome of the competency element and a description of the criteria used to judge whether the required level of performance has been achieved.
For “Verify packaging”: Verify selected packaging is permitted Check if package is free from damage or leakage When an overpack is used, check if all requirements are complied with When different dangerous goods are packed together, verify that they do
not require segregation according to table 7-1

How it looks…
11
How do we verify understanding/competency?
Currently: Test to verify understanding, not competence Last thing we do when developing a course
In a competence based approach: First thing we do
12
So what does this mean for us?
“Tables 1-4 and 1-5 of the Technical Instructions provide a list of knowledge items that are fundamental in developing a training programme necessary to achieve the required competencies.”
