Crew Resource Management (Train the Trainer)

This course gives you the skills in how to deliver effective, engaging crm lessons to meet the requirements of your operator. We do this with a focus on both facilitation and instructional techniques which allow you to meet the requirements of a crmt according to the competencies defined in both the regulatory requirements, and caa standards doc 29. 

It is these standards that you will use throughout the course on your peers, on CAAi staff and on yourself to ensure you are ready and able when the time comes, to deliver your own impactful CRM sessions.
