Air Traffic Safety Electronics Personnel Training and Assessment

Further to the publication of the Air Traffic Safety Electronics Personnel (ATSEP) Training Manual Document 7192 in 2011 for supporting the Next Generation of Aviation Professionals initiatives, the ICAO has released several revisions of the Procedures for Air Navigation Services – Training in 2016 which included the training requirements for ATSEP in addition to pilots and air traffic controllers. These editions promote the development of competency-based training and recommend the use of a competency framework for training electronics personnel with more details. In addition, a gap analysis is being conducted against the new ICAO Document 10057 - Manual on ATSEP Competency-based Training and Assessment formally published in November 2017. The division will continuously monitor and adopt the relevant international requirements on ATSEP to enhance aviation safety.
