To maintain
a productive, fair, safe and rewarding standard, and
a satisfying education environment.
The Goals of the Training
Department can be summarized as follows.
- Improve
the professional skills and knowledge of Virtual
Pilots and Virtual Air Traffic Controllers.
- Improve
the leadership skills and competencies of Virtual
Pilots and Virtual Air Traffic Controllers.
- Ensure
accountability for competent work performance and
appropriate behavior as well as to identify and
reward outstanding performance.
- Establish
and use systems and processes that are fair and
performance - based.
- Assess
members' level of satisfaction with their quality
of work life. Continue to communicate with members
regarding their level of satisfaction.
- Assist
and guide new vACC’s as required from the initial
phase to steer them toward gaining Official Status
within VATEUD
- To take
over vACC Training matters as required in event
individual vACC’s stop performing or suffer from
lack of qualified personnel.
To achieve the above mentioned
Goals, The VATEUD Training Department was
reorganized.
There are
three
departments. Each Department has its Manager and
team members.
The Departments has been established on the
following idea.
SET THE
STANDARDS ->TEACH THE STANDARDS -> EVALUATE THE
PERFORMANCE -> CERTIFY THE PERFORMANCE -> KEEP THE
RECORDS.
So, Standardization dept. will be
preparing the standards, and ask Academy to train
their people and evaluate their performance.
Finally
Administration Dept. will keep the records and
certify the performance.
As the tasks of each department are interrelated
with the tasks of other departments, it is my duty
to ensure the coordination with the kind assistance
of the Assistant Training Director.
Standardization Department
fulfills responsibilities that are a key part of the
VATEUD TRAINING Department's constant effort to
ensure safety in the skies.
SD will set
certification standards for air controllers, air
carriers, commercial operators, air agencies, and
airmen.
Standardization Department has
four sub-departments.
-
DEPARTMENT OF EUROTEST

aviation. Air Traffic Controllers and Pilots are
supposed to display a professional performance
when they are on a duty. Eurotest Department is
the instrument to judge the theoretical skills of
candidates.

:

There are 2 kind of Examiners.

in his vACC only · Division Examiners who performs practical test
within the VATEUR.

gain or regain, as the case may be,
the required
expertise, knowledge, content, as well as will and
local pride to be awarded an Official Status
within VATEUD.
The VATSIM - EUD Aviation Academy
(VATEUR-AA) is established as the training arm of
the VATSIM - EUD.
It implements training programs,
which conform to ICAO'S and JAA's standards and
recommended practices, to meet needs for both Pilots
and Air Traffic Controllers.
Through its two specialized
departments - Department of Flight School and
Department of Air Traffic Services.
By consistently staying ahead of developments taking
place in Virtual Flying, VATEUD-AA is able to

To give you a small idea about what it is, let me
give you an example.
On the new designed WEB SITE,
Controllers will be able to request CPT from the
examiners, and Examiners will report their CPT
evaluation on the WEB in certain format. We will
ensure dynamic environment, so that many hand works
will be eliminated.
Dear VATEUD members,
We will be more than happy, seeing you on line, and to
help you off line, by email when required.
Our vision
and aim, is to make the training process both
interesting and rewarding.
There are many
dedicated forums, for the benefit of all virtual pilots and
virtual air traffic controllers, where you can
discuss specific matters and learn from others
experience and knowledge.
