How confident are we in the quality of training data?
It is clear there is a lot of training data available, but using data comes with some strings. Culture is one of them: data need to be culturally normalised. In international training, the interpretation of a western instructor vs. a non-western trainee might create doubtful data.
Accurate analysis of this large dataset is another issue: interpreting data costs money.
Training of good instructors to ensure quality of reports is also time- and money-consuming. Not spending enough on instructor training or data analysis could create false insights with unintended consequences. We also need to consider how we measure the effectiveness of training by looking to connect operations data with that from training.
What have we learned from all this data, and what have we changed because of it?
With one or two exceptions, most operators have not used training data to its full potential. Unless there is an organisation behind the data to connect operations and training, and convert it into action, it is as any tool: only as good as the operator. The inclusion of training data (from instructors and simulator telemetry) in the scope of the EASA “Data4Safety” (D4S) initiative, is seen as an opportunity to add another dimension to the project’s goal of establishing a more predictive safety system.
Outsourcing data analysis was discussed from different angles; it seems that, for the moment, this is not yet widely considered.
Finally, there was discussion around the relationship between data from selection and initial licensing through to airline type-rating and recurrent training. Interesting, but for the moment not readily possible, and there is no single tool available. Further, cadets coming out of an academy go to various airlines, and it is not always possible to get the data back from those airlines. And who should assemble the multiple data and analyse? Academy or airline?
This webinar will try to bring you answers to these questions based on a workshop with leading Industry experts.
Join us on 1st July where our experts present the working group summary on Big Data, corresponding regulatory guidance, key insights, and recommendations, and conclude with an open Q&A session.
About the series:
Last month, Civil Aviation Training (CAT) magazine, held a Heads of Training online meeting to discuss the “HoT” topics facing the airline training community in Europe. CAT recognizes the need to continue this discussion as it is of utmost importance to our industry. With a select group of stakeholders, we will further address the six critical matters on the regulatory and airline horizon in a series of workshops and webinars.

Some of these topics have been with us for multiple years; others are more recent or have become more disruptive to airline training because of the pandemic.
Subject matter experts invited by CAT will discuss these topics in greater depth via a series of working groups. Each session will focus on understanding an individual topic in greater depth, assessing the impact on the industry, and raising awareness or recommending a course of action.
The output of these workshops will be showcased in a series of interactive thought-leadership webinars open to the entire airline training community.
Places are limited to 300.
