IR Part-M abstract

IR Part-M Training Course

The IR Part-M training is a two day training focusing on the requirements for commercial air transport. A separate JAA TO training is available for non-commercial aviation and Subpart F.

The IR Part-M training has recently been revised to cover the EASA syllabus for regulation training at level 2 (detailed). The Annex I to Implementing Rule 2042/2003 and the corresponding Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) are covered in detail. The Technical Requirements (Section A) and the Procedures for Competent Authorities (Section B) of Part-M are dealt with separately and in a logical, structured way.

The training also provides an overview of relevant sections of other regulations like Part-145 and Part 21. In accordance with the EASA syllabus, the training focuses on the requirements for commercial air transport in particular subparts C, G and I and on the responsibilities of the operator indicated in subpart B. This makes the training useful for both new and experienced professionals from industry and authorities.

The attendants receive hand-outs of all presentations and a Regulations book developed by JAA TO. The book covers the requirements of Part-M and the corresponding AMC material. It offers a very convenient collection of up to date regulatory information for day to day use and reference.

The book is used throughout the training. This eliminates the need to present the full texts from the regulation on the presentation slides. The slides only summarise the main points of the requirements. The trainers elaborate on these slides based on their knowledge of the requirements and experience in their application. Questions from the attendants and mutual discussions are encouraged. This makes the training more interactive and lively, which increases understanding and learning.

A continuing exchange of information between the JAA TO and EASA provides both additional information to the trainers and feed back to EASA. Many questions raised during the JAA TO trainings are now included in the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section of the EASA website.

At the completion of the training, the attendants receive a JAA TO/ECAC Certificate of Attendance, which is highly regarded throughout the world. Courses are conducted either at the JAA TO location or on-site, upon request.
