Objective
CAST addresses the impact of technological advances in future systems on selection and training of air traffic controllers. CAST will give a set of requirements for selection of future air traffic controllers and guidelines for ab-initio training for future air traffic controllers and transition training for current air traffic controllers. The overall objective of the CAST project will be the identification of consequences for controller selection and training deriving from the new working environment due to the new functions and system automation strategy.
To achieve the overall objective, the CAST project has the following objectives:
1. To define the change in tasks, selection and training requirements for air traffic controllers (ATCO's),
2. To provide a framework for recommendations for future selection and training processes, aimed at maximising training effectiveness and efficiency,
3. To provide functional requirements for the training and selection processes and associated equipment.
An inventory will be made of current and future ATM systems, current ATCO tasks and current selection and training processes. On the basis of the inventory significant transition issues will be described, being the scope of the project. Additionally, future ATCO tasks and profile will described for the future ATM systems described in the inventory. Based on the inventory and the future ATCO profile and tasks, selection and training consequences and requirements will be identified. Where possible, illustrative examples will be developed for selection and training. The outcomes of the project will be presented (and discussed) at a presentation/workshop.
