Competency Standards for Aerodrome Inspection and Reporting and Works safety

Competency Standards for Aerodrome Inspection and Reporting and Works safety 164 Kb
The Australian Airports Association Ltd (AAA) has developed these competency standards, in consultation with the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and the Australian aviation industry. They have been developed as part of a nationally co-ordinated approach to training and skills development for aerodrome inspection and reporting, and aerodrome works safety functions.

These standards describe the skills, knowledge and level of performance required to work as:

Aerodrome Reporting Officer
Works Safety Officer

They meet the minimum requirements of the Civil Aviation Act (1988) and Civil Aviation Regulations and Orders, and satisfy the operating requirements of aerodrome operators in Australia. They have been structured with the flexibility to meet the skills requirements for all classifications of airports, aerodromes and aeroplane landing areas (ALAs).

The AAA and CASA see the competency standards as the cornerstone for the future best-practice training and skills development in this industry sector. The standards will also help address the duty of care responsibilities of aerodrome operators.
