ED Decision 2025/006/R
(a) The competent authority should establish a training programme including the assessment of its GH inspectors and a plan for its implementation.
(b) The training programme should cover knowledge, skills and attitudes (KSAs) and should address specific needs of personnel and the competent authority.
(c) For each inspector, the competent authority should:
(1) define the competencies required to perform the oversight tasks;
(2) conduct a training gap analysis before enrolling the inspector in the training programme, to ensure easy recognition of any prior experience, training and qualifications relevant to their function;
(3) establish initial and recurrent training programmes in order to maintain and enhance inspectors’ competency to enable them to achieve the level necessary to perform the allocated tasks; and
(4) ensure that the training meets the established objectives and is reviewed and updated whenever necessary.
(d) The competent authority should have a process for enabling the recognition of an inspector’s previous qualifications and experience in other aviation domains, when relevant to their future tasks and should apply only the necessary additional training to complete the inspector qualifications.
(e) The training may be provided either by the competent authority’s own qualified trainers or by another suitable training source, which may be a training organisation or adequately qualified individuals.
(f) The trainers should meet the competency and qualification criteria established by the competent authority and described in its documentation. Those criteria should include:
(1) relevant experience in GH operations, as established by the competent authority;
(2) relevant experience or competence in delivery of training (applying training techniques);
(3) communication skills;
(4) safety awareness skills;
(5) behavioural traits indicating professionalism, maturity, judgment, integrity and high personal performance standards.
