Frequently Asked Questions

Is this course suitable for a small to medium size organisation?

Yes, we look at the intent of the requirements and allow you to explore how to best apply the principles to the size of your organisation.

We are an AS9100 approved organisation acting as a subcontractor to a POA but will be seeking to obtain our own POA. Will this course help me understand to route to obtaining a POA?

Yes, understanding the eligibility criteria is a fundamental step in your approach to obtaining your own POA.

Does this course examine the new approach taken by EASA and the UK CAA whereby we require a Safety Element to be introduced into our Management System?

Yes definitely; the course examines why the transition has been introduced and also analyses the Safety and Quality Element requirements that you must have to obtain/retain a POA.

I work in the defence sector; is this suitable for me?

Yes, the course is equally suitable for both the civil and defence sectors as it focuses on the management system approach to safety and the respective roles required in any organisation – irrespective of sector – to achieve it.
