EUROPEAN CIVIL AVIATION CONFERENCE - CONFÉRENCE EUROPÉENNE DE L'AVIATION CIVILE

Quality Assessment Programme assessors’ training course

Paris, 16-18 October 2023 — Ten participants from seven ECAC Member States and from the ECAC Secretariat participated in the first assessors’ training course for the Quality Assessment Programme (QAP) for persons with disabilities and persons with reduced mobility.

This initiative forms part of the formal preparations to launch the QAP, following the successful pilot programme and the decision of Directors General in May 2023 to establish the programme on an official footing from 2024. It means that the QAP will have trained and certified assessors deploy to perform assessments in ECAC Member States on a voluntary basis. The trainees participated in lectures, discussions, role-playing activities and practical exercises, before taking certification tests the day after the course.
