AMC1 ORO.CC.115(c) Conduct of training courses and associated checking ED Decision 2014/017/R TRAINING METHODS AND TRAINING DEVICES (a) The operator should establish training methods that take into account the following: (1) training should include the use of cabin training devices, audio-visual presentations, computer-based training and other types of training, as most appropriate to the training element; and (2) a reasonable balance between the different training methods should be ensured so that the cabin crew member achieves the level of proficiency necessary for a safe performance of all related cabin crew duties and responsibilities. (b) When assessing the representative training devices to be used, the operator should: (1) take into account that a representative training device may be used to train cabin crew as an alternative to the use of the actual aircraft or required equipment; (2) ensure that those items relevant to the training and checking intended to be given accurately represent the aircraft or equipment in the following particulars: (i) layout of the cabin in relation to doors/exits, galley areas and safety and emergency equipment stowage as relevant; (ii) type and location of passenger seats and cabin crew stations; (iii) doors/exits in all modes of operation, particularly in relation to the method of operation, mass and balance and operating forces, including failure of power-assist systems where fitted; and (iv) safety and emergency equipment of the type provided in the aircraft (such equipment may be ‘training use only’ items and, for oxygen and protective breathing equipment, units charged with or without oxygen may be used); and (3) assess the following factors when determining whether a door/exit can be considered to be a variant of another type: (i) door/exit arming/disarming; (ii) direction of movement of the operating handle; (iii) direction of door/exit opening; (iv) power-assist mechanisms; and (v) assisting evacuation means such as slides and ropes.
