ATC college at YBMC

[bikeboy]

Heard rumours of an ATC college to be set up at YBMC, anyone know of any details?

[tobzalp]

Interesting rumour. i will take the TA and salary maintenance to surf at marcola during my breaks. Where did you get this one?

[bikeboy]

Not an ASA run college, private company run-doubt whether salary maintenance or TA will be on offer.

Word of mouth rumours so far, nothing concrete!

learn to be an atc in melbourne or maroochydore. tough choice, not

Planning is well advanced to establish an International ATC Academy at Sunshine Coast Airport at Maroochydore. Current planning will see facility open for business in 2005. Principals are Alan Gosling ex-ASA and Bob Gardiner ex-RAAF.
POC is Bob Gardiner on [email protected].

Porx,
Interesting indeed. Who will be your target group? What will the training be in, that is, what discipline (TWR, AREA, APP?). From where will the training be derrived, ICAO? What will the facilities be like? Hope all is well post ADATS. Cheers,

NFR.

Surely, they'll only want instructors who know something about procedural ATC, won't they mate?

It probably wouldn't be too hard to turn out a better product than the ASA college. in a shorter time frame.

Well, I don't think ASA always thought like that.....

Standby for update in a week or so. Should have definitive data on who, what and when shortly.

Training will be ICAO-based for international market but the training curriculum will be competency-based rather than attendance-based. Hopefully, this will allow IATCA to provide a "guarantee" of usability of graduates in any control position to our clients.

More on this as the demand dictates.

Training will be ICAO-based ...

No good for AusNAS then.

suunto22: why stop at bagging ASA when you can bag out trainees? Sorry, I mean products. You would be a great instructor I am sure.
