| Many people working in the field of Air Traffic
Management deal with safety assessments or safety cases,
however only a few actually execute safety assessments.
As a technical project leader you may need to interpret
the safety case results. As a manager you may need to
decide on how much resources to allocate, and to allocate
the execution of the process to an organisation or people.
As an CAA employee you may have the duty to judge whether
a new operation is sufficiently safe according to regulations.
A concept designer might require more understanding
of what the safest concept or procedure would be.
NLR-ATSI offers a course in ATM safety assessments
to bring you up-to-date with the safety assessment process.
Target audience
The course is suitable for everyone involved in safety
assessments or who deals with the results of those assessments.
If you would like to know more about ATM safety assessments,
this course is an excellent starting point, but it is
remarked that safety analysts whose job it is to execute
safety assessments are not among the target audience.
At the moment, dedicated courses are available for
self-organised groups. Such a group can be a selection
of managers of several departments within a ANSP, a
team of technical experts working on one project or
the main players from regulator, inspectorate and safety
management unit in a certain state. Individual subscription
is not yet possible.
Content of the course
The course is on ATM safety assessment and structures
relevant lessons learnt, common practices, some historic
developments, applied approaches and generally accepted
ideas. It basically shows that there is a lot of existing
material in the world of ATM safety assessments, and
that there is still discussion going on what is the
best approach.
Each course will be tailored upon the wishes of the
group. It contains a fixed core and several modules
in which specific subjects are treated in more details.
The general outline of the course consists of three
modules: |

Way of training
We dislike bullet wise PowerPoint presentations with too many
slides and words. Therefore we intent to give a rather dynamic
and interactive training, assisted by exercises, role-playing,
video, discussions, and, indeed, PowerPoint presentations.
We ask you to participate actively, to come up with your experience,
and to disagree with trainers and other trainees.
Practical information
Price, duration and perspective of the course depend on your
needs and wishes. As a guideline, the typical numbers of participants
is 3 to 10 and a typical duration is 3 to 6 days.
