Sequence of Instruction and Training Programme
214. The sequence of instruction is determined by SATC. The standard sequence is detailed
in the sample programme included at Annex A to this section.
Special Instructions
215. Special Instructions for Ground Training. Special instructions for ground training are
as follows:
a.
Examinations. Examinations are held in accordance with the Ground Training

Curriculum and CH 9 of DI(AF) AAP 2002.001 etc. There are no formal written
progress tests during the course.
b.
Review of Knowledge Assessment. Provision has been made in the curriculum

for review of all formal Knowledge Assessments. After marking the examination,
the Examination Officer (EXAMSO) returns the papers to the students and
reviews the examination. After this review is complete all papers are returned to
the EXAMSO for filing and storage.
c.
Marking and Assessment of Examinations. Examinations are marked in

accordance with DI(AF) AAP 2002.001, Chapter 9.
d.
Classroom Presentations. Wherever possible, a students ability to perform a

task, as described by the assessment criteria for each training module is the
criterion upon which mastery of the learning outcome is assessed. Consequently,
only Competent/Not Yet Competent results are awarded. Assessment Plans,
Assessment Instruments and Assessor Guides are detailed in Section 5 of the
curriculum.
e.
Assessment of Presentations. Competency Based Assessments for the Course

are conducted IAW DI(AF) AAP2002.001, Chapter 9
f.
Review of Assessment. Provision has been made in the curriculum for a review
of each assessment. After each assessment, students are debriefed, and advised of
improvements and actions that might be taken to achieve better results.
g.
Exemptions. No exemptions are made, other than those for which RPL can be
given IAW the relevant policy.
216. Special Instructions for Simulator Skills Assessment Module. Special instructions
for simulator training are as follows:
16-Feb-06
a.
Briefing. Before each exercise in the Australian Defence Air Traffic System
Simulator (ADATS) or Visual Simulator (VISSIM), students are briefed on the
exercise objectives, the procedures to be employed and the method by which it
will be assessed.
b.
Debriefing. After each exercise, students are debriefed, advised of unsatisfactory

performances, improvements and actions which might be taken to achieve better
results.
2-4
Section 2
c.
Assessment. For each exercise, assessments (where required), together with

appropriate comments, are recorded on the SATC Theoretical and Integrated
Practical Assessment Network (TAIPAN). TAIPAN doubles as both the database
for the retention of student results and the assessment tool used for grading
purposes.
d.
Exercise Observation. The students observe a staff demonstration exercise

before they begin their skills assessment simulator training. The students should
be given a chance to ask questions regarding the conduct of the exercise.
e.
Exercise Periods. During the theory phases the period allocation is based on the 8
period day. For the simulator phase, the day is split into six 80 minute periods.
The first five are used to conduct assessed and learning exercises while the sixth
is often used to conduct remedial exercises (if required) and exercise briefings.
f.
Exercise Instruction. The period allocation includes time for pre-briefing,

exercise initialisation and conduct (including exercise 'freezes'). Post-exercise
debrief preparation and presentation are not allocated a separate period, as they
occur while other exercises are in progress.
Assessment Procedures
217. Competency Based Assessments for the Course are conducted IAW DI(AF)
AAP2002.001, Chapter 9. A students ability to perform a task, as described by the
assessment criteria for each training module, is the criterion upon which mastery of the
learning outcome is assessed. Consequently, only Competent/Not Yet Competent results are

This assessment will be conducted off-job but under on-job simulated

conditions.
Assessment Method: Practical observation during simulated training sessions.

Verbal questioning following debrief.
Observation of training reports and records.
Cut-off Point:
Students undertake ten training sessions in the simulator with a trainee;

four in each of the APP PROC and APP RAD environments (2x20min
and 2x40 min) and three in the TWR environment (1x20min and 2x
40Min). An Assessment Instrument Checklist will be completed for each
training session. Students will only be assessed in the final session of
Section 5
each environment. All other sessions are to be used for student training,
development and exposure. If students fail to achieve competency in
any asterisks area or in more than two non-asterisks areas during the
above mentioned final training sessions, they are to be graded as Not
Yet Competent for that individual assessment (training session).
Participants must achieve overall competency for all three final sessions
to satisfy assessment requirements for this module.
Criticality:
This assessment targets essential performance criteria. A debrief will

outline areas requiring remediation.
Scoring Instructions: Assessors are required to tick either Competent or Not Yet
Competent for each unit of the Assessment Instrument Checklist. An
overall result of Competent or Not Yet Competent will be awarded for
