Improving training effectiveness through people-centred solutions
Air Traffic Controller (ATCo) selection and training is a lengthy and demanding process. Despite the attractiveness of the profession, staff shortages and high attrition rates indicate that ANSPs find it difficult to meet the demand for sufficient and qualified operational personnel. Achieving training success requires a clear understanding of the determining factors within training systems and processes. MovingDot can help.
ICAO regulations and new EASA regulations require ANSPs and commercial training organisations to implement competence-based training and assessment for operational personnel. We offer a unique combination of extensive expertise in competence-based training and assessment and ATM training processes. With our deep understanding of the cognitive complex and professional competences required in operational functions and expertise, we help you ensure training and proficiency maintenance is tailored to the operational environment and evolving demands.
ANSPs often find it challenging to fine-tune their training programmes and processes in order to achieve predictable and successful training outcomes. MovingDot has extensive expertise in training design, development, implementation, and performance assessment. We help organisations evaluate the effectiveness of training curricula to reduce attrition rates. The outcomes of these evaluations support the optimisation of training programmes, course content and delivery methods, assessment techniques, simulation practices, and, importantly, the role of instructors and coaches.
We work for you
What we do
- Training vision development – Our extensive expertise in training and simulation enables us to support the development of your training vision, forming the foundation for effective training programmes and processes.
- Training needs analysis – An effective training programme begins with a comprehensive training needs analysis that identifies current and future ATCo competencies. We have the methods and expertise to conduct a Training Needs Analysis (TNA) in line with regulatory requirements.
- Competence-based training design – We can lead or support the design of EASA-compliant competence-based ATCo training programmes, drawing on our state-of-the-art expertise.
- Competence-based assessment – Competence-based training requires competence-based assessment methods. We have the expertise to align assessment methods with your training programmes and objectives.
- Training effectiveness evaluation – We help evaluate your training programmes, from selection and initial training through to unit training, in order to optimise training success and reduce attrition.
- Simulation – Simulation is a powerful, indispensable, yet costly element of the ATCo training system. We assist you maximise the value and effectiveness of their simulation landscape to support training success.
