source of training delivery.
To achieve this goal, the Institute has
made a learning server available to
Member States that allows participants to
log-on and choose whatever course they
require. Simoens says: “E-learning is an
effective way of meeting new EC refresher
training requirements under ESARR 5.”
EUROCONTROL has therefore asked
Training Programme and the Agency’s
Cooperative Network Design activities.
The development of new courses in these
fields not only requires significant
resources, but also poses a challenge to
knowledge management at the Institute.
The question arises, however, whether the
Institute can invest in all aspects of ATM
training. Rik Simoens is Head of the
Business and Administration Unit at
EUROCONTROL’s Institute of Air
Navigation Services. He says: “Clearly the
answer to this is no, as the Institute alone
is not able to deliver the complete
spectrum of ATM training requirements.”
Member States take responsibility for
training civil and military controllers,
engineers and regulators in their own
countries, so the Institute tends to deliver
training for the trainers and to disseminate
concepts and projects, working hard to
avoid duplication with any national
training activities.
A prime example of this is the common
core content package for basic training that
has been approved by the Agency Regulator
and is now being adopted by numerous
training schools. The EUROCONTROL
Safety Regulatory Requirement (ESARR) 5
covers training and competency skills and
Member States have to convince their own
regulator that they are in compliance with

“The challenge of today is to meet the
increasing demand for its courses and
products with almost no increase in
resources. And, as in so many other sectors
of aviation, the Institute is facing a
capacity gap with the introduction of
additional courses limited by the number
of instructors and classrooms available.”
Concentrating on its core mission
The Institute’s well-documented policy
clearly states that it provides common
course material for the Member States but
will not compete with them or their
service providers. This policy is confirmed
annually during the meetings of the
Advisory Group for ATM Training, the
Member States’ consultative body of the
Institute and, in effect, means the Institute
will not normally include in its portfolio
courses that are available on the
commercial market.
This ‘no-competition’ principle has
enabled IANS to concentrate on its core
mission of supporting the
EUROCONTROL Agency activities with
training programmes while establishing a
clear demarcation between the Institute
and service providers in the Member
States. However, this has not prevented the
development of partnerships between the
Institute and some Member States that
help it to close the capacity gap and make
more effective use of available resources.
These derive from the common
EUROCONTROL budget financed by
the Member States to guarantee equal and
fair access to unique and essential training.
The Institute began exploring
partnerships in a systematic way in 2002
and in September 2004 it signed a
Memorandum of Understanding with the
International Air Transport Association,
IATA, on the provision of training to set
and achieve ATM efficiency targets.
However, the partnership concept required
a change in mentality, as training material
was seen as a EUROCONTROL-owned
asset that needed to be protected from
commercial use, Simoens says. “Requests
for EUROCONTROL courses would
have been viewed with suspicion. But it
became increasingly clear that Air
Navigation Service Providers and States
should be able to capitalise on the
investments made in supporting the
development of the Institute’s training
materials. Consequently, the Institute has
encouraged them to use this material
outside its traditional scope.”
“A student can now complete part of a training
course online before attending the remainder of
the course at the Institute’s premises in Luxembourg”
