Introduction

This workshop replaces the earlier Nominated Postholder Flight Operations (A) Training Course, as well as the earlier Nominated Postholder (JAR-OPS 3) Flight Operations (H), and the Nominated Postholder Crew Training Courses.

An industry-specific 3-day program designed for Air Operations Management Team personnel and specifically tailored for the Nominated Persons for Flight Operations and Crew Training.

The course is combined because of the close cooperation required of these two Persons, and because they are very often deputies for each other.

The Management System for an AOC holder’s Flight Operations requires fully effective processes. The Nominated Person for Flight Operations and Crew is responsible for a wide range of safety-critical processes.

The workshop will provide training in Management approaches and techniques in order to achieve effective Flight Operations.

The workshop is highly interactive and promotes practices that have become benchmarks in the industry. It serves as preparation for authority interviews and is also a platform for exchanging experiences with peers in a confidential environment.
