ANSL launches human factors course for ATC trainees

Air Navigation Solutions Limited is introducing a human factors course tailored to meet the requirements of UK Regulation (EU) 2015/340 and designed to elevate the standards of air traffic control (ATC) training in the UK.

This self-led online course aims to teach an understanding of team resource management, fatigue management, and stress awareness – all crucial elements for maintaining a safe and efficient ATC environment.

Upon successful completion of the course, attendees will receive a confirmation of attendance, facilitating their compliance with UK regulatory requirements and validating their human factors training.

The course has been meticulously designed by Air Navigation Solutions Limited (ANSL) with an emphasis on modularity to accommodate the diverse schedules of trainees. This approach enables an effective integration of study sessions with operational training and other work commitments, ensuring a seamless learning experience.

Lucy Kirkland human factors lead at ANSL said, “Our new course demonstrates ANSL’s commitment to safety and operational excellence, ensuring that ATC trainees can be equipped with the human factors knowledge and understanding necessary to excel in their roles.

“ANSL extends an open invitation to all ANSPs, welcoming them to embrace this opportunity to enhance their trainees’ proficiency in human factors.”
