Training Needs Analysis - Threat and Error Management
- External
Internal
It has been observed that as much as 70% of the flight crew activities are
countermeasure - related activities

WATS 2015
Training Needs Analysis - Threat and Error Management
• If Threat and Error Management (TEM) fails: potential for Undesired
Aircraft States (UAS)
• Flight crews must employ countermeasures to keep threats, errors
and undesired aircraft states from reducing margins of safety in flight
operations.
Pilots competencies are considered to be countermeasures
to Threats, Errors and Undesired Aircraft States!

Competency Based Training
9 Pilot Competencies
and Performance Indicators.
Application of
Procedures
• Airbus Competency Based Grading System introduced 2013
• A350 XWB Flight Crew Training program is based on development of competencies

The Functional Approach
How do you like to learn?
A
Read the manual for 3 days?
B
Immediately start using the phone?
C
None of the above?
© AIRBUS S.A.S. All rights reserved. Confidential and proprietary document.
Remember the
last time you
started using a
new mobile
phone?
ABEAR 2015
Functional Learning
The functional approach links learning to experience. New
information is referenced to knowledge already possessed.
By using materials that the learner will use after training, the
transfer to the "real world" is enhanced. (Sticht.T - US Navy
1975 and 1976)
more efficient
more effective
Think about ACP spring loaded toggle
switch, just try explaining that, then just
use it …
Learning by doing!

New Training Tools
The A350 Flight Crew Training will introduce a new training device:
ACE
(Airbus Cockpit Experience)
• Laptop based training devices
• “Part Task Trainer”
• Training of system knowledge and
procedures
• Training of SOPs
• Distance Learning Capable
• Offload APT sessions

ABEAR 2015
New Training Tools
Procedure training in a realistic environment:
APT+ has been built with:
• side sticks,
• rudder pedals,
• adjustable seats,
• simplified visual,
• 3D hardware thrust levers.
 Objective train the right attitude early in
the training

ABEAR 2015
New Training Program
• Surprise as a training element
• Full use of the FFS by introducing 4 Scenario Based sessions at the end
of the course
Manoeuvres Training
• Train psychomotor skills
• Frequent repositions and repetitions

Scenario-Based Training
• Defined profiles (LOFT style flight from
A to B)
• Higher level of realism (environment)
• Complexity and realism increases
toward terminal phase of the course
