Maintenance Training courses will be prepared in the English language. 2, ‘The systematic approach to development ofthe manufacturer maintenance training program will require preparation of a Maintenance Performance Objective (MPO) by the manufacturer/supplier for each maintenance functiowtask, The MPO will contol the content of the individual course level and course modules, 3. Steps For Course Development ‘A. The steps in the process of course development are described as follows (the definition of the maintenance tasks will be performed first as shown in 1 and 2): (1) List All Items Per ATA Chapter Concerned ‘During this step of the procedure all items which require maintenance action will be listed according to ATA chapter. The items can be either complete systems, sub-systems, sub-sub-cystems, individual componests, or LRUs. (2) List All Maintenance Tasks Per Item ‘All maintenance tasks which can be performed on the individual items listed have to be defined per item in accordance with the maintenance/overhaul manual, The definition of actions and procedures to perform ‘the function/task are givea in the relevant work performance documents, ¢,g., Maintenance Manual, Maintenance Job Cards, etc. (3) Task Analysis, . A careful analysis is made of the knowledge and skills required to perform the function/ task, Tt mast be @ recognized that when students are below the defined entry level, prerequisite training is required and has tobe separately cstablished, In addition to the entry level, the analysis will consider the following: + telationto safety ‘+ newness (edvanced technology) + criticality to flight operations * maintenance practices specific to type of equipment + frequency of performance + difficulty of performance Because nonmally no one aircraft techaician will perform all maintenance work possible, the fmction/task to be performed by defined groups of personnel will have ta be anlyzed. This will be done in accordance ‘with the previously defined training levels: Level I Generel Familiarization - for management and other support personnel Level I: Ramp and Transit -for personnel associated with through flight maintenance activities Level IIL Line and Base Maintenance Training - for personnel associated with line and base maintenance {_) Copyright © 2002 Air Transport Association of America, Inc.

Establish Training Modules In this step, Training Modules shall be established and defined forall maintenance items classified in different levels in accordance with approved documents. They are to be identified with the following, performance blocks: (@) Identification and location: Contains information necessary to identify, name and locate items in working documents as separate units, or within the normal aircraft installation, (®) Purpose and Interface: Contains information necessary to state the items’ purpose and relation to other items, (©) Operation: Contains information necessary to demonstrate the understanding of operational capabilities, method ofutilization, procedural sequence of operation, and operational limitations, (@) Functional Description: Contains information necessary to describe the peculiar features of the item concerned and predict cffecis and results caused by several factors. (©) Training Information Points: Provide an overview of maintenance processes and/or procedures which have training significance, ‘While they provide an overview of maintenance practices, they shall not contain any information (e.g. tolerances, torque values, ec.) that would permit the mechanic to perform maintenance without the applicable maintenance practices procedure from the Aircraft Maintenance Manual. (Ref. [ATA iSpec 2200}, Sec 2-1-2.4.1) Training Information Points wil be derived froma review of the ‘performance topies (page blocks) listed in the Aircraft Maintenance Manual, (Ref. [ATA iSpee 2200], Heading 3-3-1.1) Define Teaching Sequence ‘The course structure will not necessarily be sequenced in ATA chapter order and may vary according to each aircrafis' systems and their logical interface. (7) Selection Of Method And Media @) All methods, media and types of training aids should be considered for course presentation.
