EASA Regulatory Training Organisational Compliance & Requirements

Posted in Uncategorized by admin @ Aug 18, 2010

Organisations whether Operators, MRO or 145’s are increasingly facing
the burden of training their employee’s to satisfy regulatory
requirements. Both Part M and Part 145 require that employees are
assessed for competence and need to be provided with suitable
training.

In addition to the general, and on going training requirements, to
maintain competence for example by undertaking Part M and Part 145
Training, there is also the need to manage and provide recurrent
training in a number of key areas, for example Human Factors, Fuel
Tank Safety, (FTS) and Electrical Wiring Interconnect systems, (EWIS).

Unlike EASA Regulatory Training Organisational Compliance where there
is no EASA mandate the situation regarding aircraft certification is
very different.

Aircraft certification related trainings (Part 66 licensed Aircraft
engineer) must be provided by a Part 147 approved organisation where
the organisation delivering the trainings is approved to EASA Part
147, Regulatory trainings do not require EASA approval and may in fact
be delivered or undertaken in house in which case the trainings need
to satisfy the Quality System that they are compliant with the
organisation requirements.

So it is the organisations Quality System not EASA which approves EASA
“In Company” Regulatory Training.

EASA Regulatory Trainings may also be out sourced to a reputable
organisation and just the same as you would manage and approve
component stockists for example you should satisfy your self of the
reputation and standards of the provided regulatory and associated
trainings.
