CAAP plays host at Training Organizations Summit
The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines has launched the Approved Training Organizations Summit last Monday which attracted more than 120 delegates from various flight schools, including accountable managers, quality managers and heads of training.
CAAP said that the event — which was planned on the initiative of the Flight Standards Inspectorate Service's Licensing and Certification Department — aims to raise the bar for aviation training standards and safety.
The program also included updates from the Training Organizations Certification and Inspection Division and LCD; lectures on Single Pilot Human Factors and Threat and Error Management; Competency-Based Training Assessment; and a Corrective Action Plan: Close Loop.
Additionally, specialized workshops were conducted, such as the Corrective Action Plan Workshop for Quality Managers and the Threat and Error Management Workshop for Heads of Training.
One of the summit's highlights was the executive meeting between the accountable managers and CAAP Captain Florendo C. Aquino, acting chief of FSIS, LCD chief Atty. Nestor Pasano and Captain Edgardo Diaz led discussions on issues relating to training organizations' administrative and operational difficulties.
Department of Transportation Undersecretary for Aviation and Airports Roberto Cecilio Lim attended the event together with CAAP director general Captain Manuel Antonio Tamayo and deputy director general for Operations Captain Edgardo Diaz, who actively supported the activity.
