retired guy, #168, we think alike.
However, take care in not slipping into the ‘ditch of solutions’ - training for the front line operators.The industry trains for the perceived threat, with today’s equipment.
Who trains the trainers, who oversees that - how.

Re ‘
appropriate and effective’ certification process - new / grandfather. An important question is who created the processes, checked them, learnt from evaluation and use.
Even with adequate oversight, human judgement is the final arbiter, but that is more with hindsight than foresight.
Social media forums thrive on hindsight, foresight is just ‘uninteresting’ opinion. Alternatively with ‘facts’ interpreted after the event, they, and with debatable comparisons of others’ opinion, can be rejudged - but to what point.
The required ‘process’ is to consider what can be learnt, and what can be done which might effect the future. We cannot change the past, even with debated hindsight; but we can consider what might be changed now so that this might influence and improve behaviour - everyone, so that future operations will remain safe.
