Sofema Aviation Services (SAS) www.sassofia.com provides SMS Training for trainers to prepare your SMS Instructor to deliver appropriate training for all roles within your organisation.
Introduction – Consider the following:
- An SMS is more than just the sum of its elements.
- An SMS requires a different way of thinking –
o A systems or systematic approach!
- An SMS also requires a different approach to management
- SMS elements should not be considered in isolation, but rather as the totality of the system it represents.
Aviation System Changes
Significant changes have taken place over the last 25 years in many areas of aviation and not only in the technical quality of the product.
It has taken the Aviation Industry decades to understand fully the role of the organization in aviation accidents and incidents.
This understanding has led to the current environment in which the focus is turning within the organization to the specific need for a Safety Management System, not just driven by regulations but also acknowledging the organisation’s desire to promote the most effective business practices.
EASA Part 145 AMO SMS Training
Maintenance 145 SMS Training concerns an understanding of all the various safety obligations which are role-specific and apply to every person within the organisation.
Your task as an SMS Instructor is to impart knowledge and understanding to all Aircraft Maintenance Organisation Employees. Now consider your challenges:
- How to make a difference?
- How to improve the training standard?
Do you see your future as an EASA Part 145 SMS Instructor?
The focus of our EASA Part 145 Safety Management Systems Train the Trainer 3-day course is to:
- Identify,
- Encourage and enhance your Classroom Instructional Skills.
- Learning from professionals how to define a training program,
- best practice methods for facilitation and presenting.
- Understand how to perform a Training Needs Analysis and develop material and content.
- Ensuring the delivery of an active and engaging learning experience for the delegates.
The course aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the requirement for effective training within the maintenance SMS and to share a range of learning techniques that will enable you to deliver strong and effective training.
Understanding the Train the Trainer Learning Experience
- You will understand the Adult Learning Experience – Andragogy as well as understand the best use of instructional tools and techniques to enhance instruction.
- To focus on the various techniques to optimize and deliver practical presentations as well as develop your communication skills.
- To learn how to create a lesson plan that incorporates the range of learning activities as well as understand how to develop Course Material and preparation through an effective Training Needs Analysis.
Technical trainers need to understand how to motivate participants and to maintain attention, how to ensure participants’ active involvement throughout the training.
The rationale behind the Sofema Aviation Services Train the Trainer course is quite simple
- That the role of Trainer / Instructor / Coach /Mentor is open to everyone prepared to take the necessary steps to achieve.
- It is also based on the belief that the most appropriate 145 SMS training is delivered within the workplace – means by the organization for the organization.
Adult Learning Behaviours
If we study adult learning programs we understand that adults do learn in a different way than kids.
- Adults bring life experience and knowledge to the learning environment.
- This experience and knowledge includes work-related, family, as well as social and cultural elements. We should also understand that Adults learn best when they can relate new knowledge and information with previously learned knowledge, information, and experiences.
- Adult Learning Expectations – Adults have self-pride and desire respect. They need their experience, beliefs, knowledge, questions, and ideas acknowledged as important. Adults want practical, goal-oriented, and problem-centered learning that can immediately help them deal with life’s challenges.
So that we are able to build on this understanding to see the role and involvement of the individual as well as to see the opportunities for positive intervention.
As instructors, we should also understand fully the nature and importance of our messages and use CFU (checking for understanding) process to ensure that the message is received.
So as we mentioned above for successful training, our delivery needs to be relevant to the individual we do need to get several messages across
(What are these messages?……….. As instructors we are the message managers !)
- As we try to motivate our group we will find that they are at different levels of understanding and engagement so it becomes an interesting challenge for the instructor to keep everyone on board.
