Este post está dirigido a todos aquellos que acuden a este blog pidiendo consejo acerca de la formación requerida para ser Despachador de Vuelo. Si bien no vamos a recomendar tal o cual centro de formación os queremos ofrecer un resumen del "Training Manual Doc 7192-AN/857 Part D-3"; con ello podréis tener un criterio con el que analizar las distintas opciones que barajéis.
En primer lugar se recomienda que la formación se divida en dos partes; la primera fase, que consiste en el background teórico necesario y una segunda fase consistente en la aplicación práctica de los conocimientos adquiridos. A continuación detallamos el nivel de especialización y conocimiento requeridos por el 7192 para cada una de las materias de las que se compone el curso:
1
"denotes a basic knowledge of a subject. Trainees
should have a basic understanding of the subject
but are not expected to apply that knowledge"
2
"denotes knowledge of the subject and the ability,
where applicable, to apply it in practice with the
help of reference materials and instructions"
3
"denotes a thorough knowledge of the subject and
the ability to apply it with speed and accuracy"
4
"denotes extensive knowledge of the subject and
the ability to apply procedures derived from it
with judgernent appropriate to the circumstances"
Ahora procederemos a enumerar cada una de las asignaturas con las horas de formación requeridas y el grado de especialización necesario en cada tema.
