A question for assessors.
I am an aviation industry expert - not an armchair addict.
Having moved on from the industry, I now work in UK rail and manage train drivers (having formerly qualified and driven trains myself).
We are working hard to incorporate Non Technical Skills into train driving competency, and are facing similar challenges to the early days of CRM.
My question for assessors is within the airline you work for, how is CRM/NTS measured in routine assessments? Or is it a box ticking exercise?
Sadly, I work with many drivers post incident who see the light and embrace the concept, but getting the buy in for your regular day in day out driver is tough. The funny thing for me is reading up on how some pilots still believe that CRM is a load of tosh - but are practising it daily through well written SOP's with CRM at the heart. Sadly we are a long way off this in UK rail.
If anyone can share info or is willing to send anything through (pm me) I will be most greatful.
Thanks all
