AMC3 to Appendix 6 ‘Modular training courses for the IR’
ED Decision 2019/017/R
SECTION Aa IR(A) – COMPETENCY-BASED MODULAR FLYING TRAINING COURSE
(a) THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE INSTRUCTION
(1) The theoretical knowledge instruction may be given at an ATO conducting theoretical knowledge instruction only, in which case the HT of that ATO should supervise that part of the course.
(2) The hours required for the theoretical knowledge instruction for the IR following the competency-based training route should be divided between the subjects and include the application of threat and error management (TEM) as based on the ATO’s systems course design and agreed upon between the competent authority and the ATO.
An approved course, which includes the application of threat and error management, may contain in suitable proportions:
(i) classroom work;
(ii) lessons;
(iii) tutorials;
(iv) demonstrations, including those supported by demonstration equipment;
(v) exercises carried out as groups or individuals and based on pre-flight and en-route planning, communications, presentations and projects;
(vi) exercises that use demonstration equipment or training devices;
(vii) directed study including workbook exercises or assignments;
(viii) aerodrome or aviation industry field trips;
(ix) computer-based training and e-learning elements;
(x) progress tests; and
(xi) other training methods, media and tools approved by the competent authority.
Approved distance-learning (correspondence) courses may also be offered as part of the course. The minimum amount of classroom instruction, as required by ORA.ATO.305, may include all of the above except item (a)(2)(ix).’
(b) THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE EXAMINATION
The applicant for the IR following the competency-based training route should pass an examination to demonstrate a level of theoretical knowledge appropriate to the privileges granted in the subjects further detailed in FCL.615(b). The number of questions per subject, the distribution of questions and the time allocated to each subject is detailed in AMC1 ARA.FCL.300(b).
EASA aircrew regulations for competency-based IR modular flying training require approved theoretical knowledge instruction, potentially at a dedicated training organization under its head. Instruction includes classroom work, exercises, demonstrations, and distance learning. Applicants must pass an examination demonstrating sufficient theoretical knowledge for instrument rating privileges. Threat and error management is crucial.
