Fatigue Risk Management Systems (FRMS) and Safety Case Training for Regulators (LIVE virtual Classroom)

VIRTUAL CLASSROOM

Did you know that in the past 3 years, 65 participants from 4 countries have taken this course with IATA?

About the course

3-day (12 hours) LIVE virtual classroom course

Fatigue is acknowledged as a critical element in aviation safety. Regulators need to guide and oversee the development and maintenance of Safety Cases to support moving from the prescriptive approach to the performance-based Fatigue Risk Management (FRM) approach. Regulators need to be knowledgeable about building Safety Cases, writing Guidance Material for the Service Providers they regulate, and developing robust regulatory oversight and audit practices for Fatigue Risk Management Systems. Benefit from the latest information from world-leading safety regulators, operators and scientific organizations.

Course Code: TCVT-99-VC
