ForewordDear Colleagues,It is our pleasure to introduce the 1st Edition of the Guidance Material and Best Practices for Command Training.This innovative guidance proposes the first Competency-Based Training and Assessment (CBTA) approach for thedesign of pilot development programs with special emphasis on command training.The CBTA approach to command training is a strategic IATA initiative that sustains the IATA Total Systems Approach,which stands for the application of CBTA across all aviation disciplines in general, and to all modules and roles of apilot’s entire career in particular.In 2018, IATA estimated that the number of passengers could double to 8.2 billion by 2038. This forecast is expectedto cause a rapid fleet expansion which, combined with high retirement rates, will certainly expedite the pilot careerpath for first officers to upgrade as a commander.In this context and given the essential contribution of the pilots and commanders to flight safety, it was important tolook into the existing command training curricula and propose solutions to enhance globally the level of competencyof the commanders. Hence, this manual is dedicated to their training, and its content can be used by operators and bytraining organizations.The content of this manual may also be useful for the design of other training programs such as operator conversioncourses, cruise relief pilot training, commander recurrent training, etc.It is our belief that the shared efforts put into the development of this new approach to command training willcontribute to achieving our common goal of improving aviation safety worldwide.We want to acknowledge the valuable work and support provided by the IATA Pilot Training Task Force in thedevelopment of this manual. Without their support the publication of this manual would not have been possible.Best Regards,Gilberto Lopez MeyerVice-President, Safety and Flight OperationsIATA1st Edition 2020v
