Appendix 2 authorizations, and for each course completed, the total time credited, the date, the instructor, the location, and the results of any associated examination.
All documents showing proof of any of the aforementioned training are maintained for as long as an individual is an ABC employee and for 2 years thereafter.
Any employee may review their training records to verify that they are complete and current. If an employee notes a discrepancy in the training record documentation, that employee will inform the accountable manager of the discrepancy. Any change necessary to update an employee’s training record must be approved by the accountable manager.
SECTION 6. REVISION PROCESS The process for submitting changes to the training program for FAA approval is described in ABC’s RSM.
NOTE: Alternatively, if the repair station wishes this training program to stand on its own, it may describe the method for changing this approved program in this section.
SECTION 7. WORK PERFORMED FOR PARTS 121, 125, 129, AND 135 OPERATORS ABC does not perform work for air carriers or commercial operators under part 121, 125, 129, or
135.
Before ABC would perform maintenance (including inspection), preventative maintenance, or alteration under its 14 CFR part 145 certificate for an air carrier or commercial operator it would conduct a training needs assessment in accordance with Section 2, paragraph 1, to determine if additional capabilities were needed for its employees.
SECTION 8. WORK PERFORMED BY INTERIM MAINTENANCE EMPLOYEES During periods of heavy workload, ABC may supplement its workforce with interim maintenance employees. Before these individuals begin work for ABC, they must undergo a needs assessment. The accountable manager must determine where the individuals will work to conduct the needs assessment and ensure all individuals are provided training appropriate to the particular assignment before they are required to begin work.
Appendix 3 APPENDIX 3. EUROPEAN AVIATION SAFETY AGENCY (EASA) TRAINING
REQUIREMENTS
1. TRAINING PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS UNDER THE U.S./EUROPEAN UNION (EU) AVIATION SAFETY AGREEMENT. Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 145 repair stations holding EASA Part-145 approval should include human factors training and fuel tank safety (FTS) training, as applicable, in their FAA-approved repair station training programs.
2. BACKGROUND. On March 24, 2009, the Executive Director of the EASA determined that the human factor training and FTS training program contained in EASA Part-145 is acceptable guidance for repair stations to use as a basis in developing a training program for relevant repair station personnel.
3. HUMAN FACTORS TRAINING AND FTS TRAINING. Personnel at a repair station should know how to interface between maintenance, inspection, quality audit, and maintenance management. This training should center on the scope of work performed by the repair station.
The repair station should ensure the training program is controlled and developed per the FAA Repair Station Manual (RSM)/EASA Supplement.
4. ALTERNATIVES TO FAA-APPROVED TRAINING. Those FAA-approved repair stations holding applicable airframe ratings that want to develop their own FTS training program may do so by referencing EASA Part-145, appendix IV to AMC 145.A.30(e) and 145.B.10(3), Fuel Tank Safety Training.
5. REFERENCES. EASA acceptable means of compliance (AMC) and guidance material regarding human factors training and FTS training are provided in the current edition of EASA Part 145, appendix IV to AMC 145.A.30(e) and 145.B.10(3), which is found on the EASA’s website at https://easa.europa.eu/rulemaking/technical-publications.php.
