The Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF) is releasing two e-Learning courses for members who participate in the Aviation Safety Action Program (ASAP). ACSF administers an ASAP through a cooperative arrangement with the FAA, providing an opportunity for charter, fractional, and Part 91 operators to participate in the voluntary, self-reporting program.
Developed in concert with NATA’s Safety 1st Program, the free courses provide an introduction to ASAP, along with principles and administration of the program. They also educate on the use and benefits of the program. Lasting less than one hour each and provided through NATA’s Learning Management System, the courses were developed for aviation safety leaders in a variety of roles.
ACSF said the courses will outline the “four pillars of value of ASAP,” provide an understanding of how the program gets integrated into a safety management system, explain safety risk management, discuss the process used for ASAP report evaluation, walk through the FAA Memorandum of Understanding process, and show how to review evidence for the success of an ASAP.
“We’re all grateful to roll out technology that enables the ASAP to build awareness and help aviation organizations learn from home or the office,” said ACSF president Bryan Burns. “It’s a big plus that, for participants, there’s no need to travel to a workshop training venue or download a PowerPoint.
