Abstract

The introduction of advanced air traffic control systems presents a number of challenges to senior decision makers. The objective of this paper is to present an overview of six critical issues that decision makers must consider relative to training. These issues are:

  • Method of acquisition

  • Use of specifications and standards

  • Need for integrated work team of system engineers and training professionals

  • Training delivery

  • Courseware validation and measurement of proficiency

  • Configuration management
