course) followed after a suitable length of time by the aircraft TRI Type Specific (TRITS) module. The TRES
course completes a unique portfolio that demonstrates CTC’s unrivalled experience in the provision of airline
instructor/examiner training.

The course covers all aspects of training skills as required by the Regulatory Authority. It extends beyond the
basic syllabus to cover those advanced topics that any airline training department would expect future
training staff to experience – including CRM debriefing techniques, the analysis of crew behaviours (utilising
the Non Technical Skills (NOTECHS) framework or the client airline’s own approved behavioural markers
framework**), report writing and debriefing ”difficult” trainees. The course covers the following main topic
areas –
• Human Performance and Limitations

• Training Philosophies
• Techniques of Applied Ground Instruction
• Student Evaluation and Testing
• Practical Briefing, Training, Assessment and Debriefing Exercises

Type Rating Examiner Standardisation Course (TRES) – 5 days

About CTC Aviation Group plc
Instructor / Examiner Training Page 3
CTC is one of the very few organisations to have been approved by the British Civil Aviation Authority to
conduct Type Rating Examiner courses on its behalf. This course has achieved a world-renowned status in
preparing airline instructors for examining duties on behalf of the Regulatory Authority. Candidates entering
this course must satisfy all the training and experience requirements of the appropriate Regulatory Authority
including possession of a valid TRI rating.
This course is generic to all aircraft types and focuses on the practical and ethical differences between
instructing and examining. It involves practical exercises and scenarios in a simulated environment to enable
the TRE candidate to apply general principles of planning the test scenarios and examining in either a
simulator or an aircraft. A formal test on the final day assesses that the correct proficiency standard has been
achieved to progress the candidate through to the later Examiner Authorisation Acceptance Test (EAAT) that
may be required by your Regulator.
** The NOTECHS (Non Technical Skills) framework is used for all courses as the foundation for the
development of observational skills in identifying effective and ineffective behaviours by crew members. If
your airline uses a different, Approved behavioural markers framework, it may be possible to incorporate its
use depending on the numbers involved in the course. Please contact us for more information.
