If the Group helps you with your research do we get to pass Human Factors
(BSc Aviation)?
How about we do a group assignment, answer all your questions and get a few
Credit points for it.

>Dear all
>I have recently subscribed to this list and have a question for you.
>I coordinate a second-year Human Factors subject in the BSc (Aviation)
>degree program at the University of Newcastle, Australia, titled "Group
>Interaction and Flightcrew Performance". A major focus is CRM and students
>work in groups to design an airline CRM course as a major assignment towards
>their overall assessment.
>In parallel, I would like to run a small piece of research to attempt to
>establish current CRM practice in airlines globally.
>I hope to get a picture of what the major and other airlines in various
>countries are actually doing with HF and CRM training at present.
>I would like to find out what types of Human Factors and CRM training
>individual airlines give their staff within the following five criteria:
>1. What training is currently given, including module breakdown, name, and
>duration of each component?
> eg introductory, 2 days;
> communicaton module 1/2 day;
> LOFT session 2 hrs, annual recurrent trg etc
>2. Who receives the training?
> eg tech crew, cabin attendants, mgt, maintenance, ops staff etc
>3. Delivery methods employed?
> eg, lecture, small group seminars, videos, LOFT trg in simulator etc.
>4. Who are the presenters?
> eg, tech crew, cabin crew, consultants, mixture, etc
>5. Who are the developers?
> Airline staff, consultants, mixture etc
>
>I wonder if subscribers to this newsgroup would have information on current
>practice by airlines they are familiar with that they could share in as much
>detail as possible. (Or contact details for those I could ask direct in the
>indiviual airlines).
>If so please email it direct to me, and indicate if you would like any of
>the information, or the source, to be confidential for any reason.
>If the group is interested I would be happy to disseminate the findings back
>to the group for all of our information.
>Thanking you all in advance,
>Regards, Mike
