CAE Inc Confidential and/or Proprietary Information The New Focus – Competency-Based Training Existing prescriptive training programs do little to confirm that a trainee has obtained the knowledge and mastered the skills associated with a given task CAE believes that competency-based training and assessment provides a viable means of improving pilot proficiency Examples of competency-based training: Most military flight training programs Advanced Qualification Programs (AQP) programs for line pilots Only achievable if the principles of the ISD process are well understood and successfully applied

CAE Inc Confidential and/or Proprietary Information FAA ANPRM

CAE Inc Confidential and/or Proprietary Information The Challenge of Training for Safety  The primary response to aircraft incidents in recent decades (thus far) has been to increase the prescriptive hourly requirements, required maneuvers, and testing processes necessary for qualification.  There have been improvements:  Ever-improving synthetic training technology and tools  Advanced Qualification Program (AQP) training  ITQI Initiatives (Instructor Training & Evidenced-based Training)  Maturing Threat and Error Management (TEM) Programs  We are still challenged to advance our training and evaluation methods in the international aviation community

CAE Inc Confidential and/or Proprietary Information Comments on the FAA ANPRM  We do not believe that hourly requirements establish a pilot’s competencies for a pilot of a Part 121 air carrier (whether 1500, 800, 750, or otherwise)  The 1500 hour requirement will further discourage potential candidates from entering the pilot profession  What is needed for air carrier safety and efficiency is:  A structured systems approach to instructional design  Scientific validation of demonstrated knowledge and skill-based outcomes  Theoretical knowledge and practical skills competencies should be defined through the Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC) process

CAE Inc Confidential and/or Proprietary Information An Additional Recommendation  We encourage the formation of a global Aviation Training Organization from which ICAO could seek cooperation and counsel on training of aviation professionals  Examples:  IATA -- the global voice for airlines  IFALPA -- the global voice for pilots
