Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Plan training
   • Confirm trainee readiness for proposed training through review of training records to establish their competency status
   • Training objectives based on performance criteria are identified
   • Required knowledge is identified relevant to the instructional period to confirm trainee understanding
   • Appropriate training methods to facilitate training objectives and knowledge transfer are selected
   • Threat and error management (TEM) principles are applied within ground-based instructional periods
   • Potential threats and errors are identified within airborne instructional periods, including those associated with the simulation of abnormal or emergency procedures, aircraft mishandling by trainee, and identifying suitable mitigators
   • Appropriate ground, simulation or airborne training resources are selected
   • Availability and serviceability of required facilities, equipment, training aids, reference material and training aircraft or devices is confirmed
