Leadership is key to deliver results in increasingly complex circumstances. Designed for Managers, Supervisors and ATCOs transitioning into a supervisory role, wanting to develop their leadership skills in an Air Traffic Management environment.
Our Supervisor Course (SUP) is designed to build up a solid leadership foundation for Managers, Supervisors and ATCOs transitioning into a supervisory role. They are the linchpins in any operational environment and need skills to analyse, establish and execute decisions in a fast-moving environment. These skills are different to providing Air Traffic Services and are needed for supervisory roles in an operations room.
To be able to lead a team, the organisation and operations room needs leaders. Our Supervisor training is vital for organisations who want their supervisory staff to be robust within areas such as leadership, communication, safety culture, performance culture, and team performance.
Our training concept offers participants opportunity for personal development, new skills, deeper understanding for leadership etc.
GATE Aviation Training academy is certified by the Danish Civil Aviation Authority in accordance with Commission Regulation (EU) 2015/340.
All personnel involved in reporting and investigation management will benefit highly from this training. Further, managers with operational responsibilities will also benefit from the training in order to provide optimal support to investigations of incidents.
Incident Investigation still constitutes one of the most powerful tools for any organisation to learn about itself.
Even though incident rates consequentially have been lowered, the possibility for deeper learning and challenging of prevailing assumptions often remains anchored in the ability to extract deeper learning from incidents.
Harvesting the learning potential from such occurrences, still remains a challenge and many reports remain stuck in proximal details of the latest incident combined with judgments of human performance, rather than explanations for why actions and assessments made sense at the time.
This three-day course is designed to address exactly that. Combining a total of more than three decades of industry experience with the most prominent thinking in contemporary safety science, this course will enable participants to move beyond human error and identify deeper levels of organisational behaviour that lawfully shaped individual performance surrounding an incident.
Rather than focusing on method and structure, the course applies theory, case studies and exercises to take participants through a reflection and discovery process, that provides a different way of understanding incidents.
Our Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) training programme is designed for any Air Navigation Service Provider to establish and maintain a peer driven CISM programme. Managers with operational responsibilities will also benefit from the training in order to provide optimal support to CISM peers.
Our initial CISM training course provides participants with the foundations to implement a CISM programme as part of an Air Navigation Service Provider’s initiative to comply with Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/373.
The CISM course design is based on the ‘Mitchell Method’ that was developed after the United Airlines Flight 232 crash in 1989 at Sioux City Airport, USA when controllers on duty did not receive the help they needed. The Mitchell Method is used worldwide by trained CISM peers.
The course covers key elements of a CISM programme to enable participants providing structured assistance for a normal reaction in an abnormal event. CISM creates a preparedness in the team for adaptive, short term processes that focus on the immediate critical incident and includes help for the individual and team to get back to normal operation post-incident.
The CISM intervention strategies are simulated in exercises where participants will gain the desired experiences.
Our Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) refresher training course is designed for any CISM peers or participants who have completed our Initial CISM training course.
GATE’s CISM refresher training course is part of our program to support Air Navigation Service Providers in their initiative to implement a CISM program and comply with Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/373.
Six to nine months after completing GATE’s Initial CISM training course, a 2-day refresher and follow-up course is recommended to complement the knowledge and skills of CISM peers.
The course focusses on reviewing the implementation and experiences with CISM to identify any amendments that may be needed. It also deepens and widens the portfolio of intervention strategies with a focus on group interventions, so that participants have a good level of strategies following the initial and follow up training.
The CISM intervention strategies are simulated in exercises where participants will gain the desired experiences.
GATE’s concentration and focus course is designed for ATC, ATS & ATSEP personnel. The course is relevant to all operational personnel, OJTI’s, supervisors, technicians, managers and learners.
Being trained in how to concentrate effectively will improve our skills to handle different types of distractions and interruptions. By learning how to concentrate and focus we increase our mental performance and provide more brain capacity into our work.
GATE’s new and innovative concentration and focus course provides new tools to operational personnel as well as learners. Working in the Operations Room, leading staff or being in a demanding initial training phase requires high performance more than ever. Stress is becoming a normal element in our daily life; therefore new tools are required.
The course is fostering a new generation of personnel for the aviation industry who are being trained to motivate themselves with encouragement rather than criticism and to tackle stressful situations with greater ease. When a person learns how to soften the inner critic, a successful outcome in the Operations Room or classroom is more likely to become the result.
Our Concentration and Focus course encompass seven training sessions. The sessions are experience-based. Each session will include presentations of a topic, exercises and dialogue in large and small groups as well as guided practice that will illustrate essential points about focus and concentration. It is a skill-building program with methods and techniques aimed at enhancing attention span and concentration.
AIS to AIM Basic Training course is designed for all aviation personnel who work in the Aeronautical Information Management domain. This course is relevant to current and future AIM personnel working in Air Navigation Services, an aerodrome environment, civil aviation authority, or military sector.
This course provides participants with an overview of Aeronautical Information Management and its evolution from Aeronautical Information Service (AIS) to Aeronautical Information Management (AIM).
The course consists of theoretical and practical parts. The theoretical part of the training will give participants a vital knowledge of the AIS/AIM domain, specifically:
Within the practical part of the training, participants will gain the essential skills to create digital data sets in AIXM 5.1, defined by applicable legislation and will understand the concept of digital NOTAM creation & use.
The course duration is 4 days (3 days of theoretical training and 1 day of practical training). There are no prerequisite requirements for participating in this course.
The course is provided in close cooperation with NG Aviation, a company with professional background and extensive experience in the digitization of the aviation industry, specially of Aeronautical Information.
The NG Aviation team of instructors who provide this course are experts from all key areas of the air traffic management industry.
Other courses within the field of AIS / AIM can be designed towards your organisation’s requirements. Please contact us for more information.
