Air Traffic Controllers’ Practical Part of Basic Training on Computer Based Simulation Device

Air traffic controllers are responsible for guiding aircraft through the airspace and for ensuring timely, safe and expeditious flow of air traffic. Throughout the whole education and later work, air traffic controllers undergo extensive training that is divided into three phases – initial training (basic and rating training), unit training (transitional, pre-on- the-job and on-the-job training) and continuation training (conversion and refresher training). In all three phases of the training, the focus is placed on practical training exercises performed on computer based simulation devices. This paper focuses on basic part of the initial training and gives an overview of practical training exercises performed on a particular computer based simulation device. It also provides an insight into challenges the candidates are faced with while mastering the techniques of performance based training.
