Mastering Training Device Management

Managing the complexity of modern training devices is no trivial task

Being on top of configuration changes, master-load releases, QTG testing, database updates and device upgrades takes a level of skill and experience most don't have. Our Training Device Management Course equips your team with the technical knowledge and hands-on expertise to maintain, configure, and optimise critical simulator systems and support systems to ensure high performing devices that meet all compliance requirements.

A Holistic Approach to Training Device Management

Our comprehensive program builds a solid foundation in FSTD management, covering everything from hardware to software, and qualification management to quality management systems. Delivered through expert-led modules and real-world practical tasks, this training enables attendees to confidently manage anything that gets thrown their way and keep their customers and regulators happy.

OEM Agnostic Training

Our training is always agnostic of any specific simulator or aircraft OEM, meaning your skills are useful
as the centre expands.

In-person Delivery

Training Device Management is a complex undertaking, and as such our training is always delivered in-person wherever possible.

Current, Relevant Information

Our TDM course is always maintained and kept up to date with the latest industry trends, and regulator requirements.

Why this training?

Our instructor led training has been developed specifically to support organisations ned to meet regulatory compliance requirements of one or more flight simulators.

 

Covering all major standards against which synthetic training devices are measured and qualified, the course provides the in-depth knowledge to manage simulators effectively.
