Is this not the operators using the ground school phase of the TRs as a vehicle to perform the BS elements that all (most) staff have to do? H&S, ethics, anti corruption etc...None of which have any relevance to a TR and none of which are part of any TR CBTs prepared by any of the independent CBT providers!
Exactly that. These modules are often dumped on the candidates for type ratings withing the tight timeframe allocated for TR study along with the usual need to also read and sign for the entire library of notices to crew and other Part A/B manuals. it is a complete distraction from the important bit of actually learning how the aeroplane works.
