The Evidence based training (EBT), together with the Competency-Based Training and Assessment (CBTA), is a safety improvement initiative within the flight training environment supported by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) developed with the aim to reduce the airlines accident rate through the revision of the existing recurrent and type-rating training for airline pilots.
The EBT is a data driven training and assessment method which focuses on developing and assessing the overall capability of a pilot trainee across a range of core competencies instead of Focusing on performance in individual events or manoeuvres.
The aim of an EBT Programme is to identify, develop and assess the competencies required by pilots to operate safely, effectively and efficiently in a commercial air transport environment by managing the most relevant threats and errors based on evidence collected in operations and training.
​
This course will provide the necessary tools and methodologies to successfully implement a functioning and effective EBT program within the Air Operator organisation as required by (EU) Regulation 965/2012.
Objectives
At the end of the course the Trainee will become familiar with the EBT Programme the related principles and methodologies and its implementation in accordance with the requirements laid out in (EU) 965/2012 Air Ops Regulations.
The trainee will learn about the practical application on the principles and philosophies of Evidence-based Training, in addition to guidance on approval as well as continuing oversight of EBT Programme.
