CHAPTER 3 Training manual

68 Changes to the training manual
1 The applicant must inform the regulator in writing as soon as possible of any material change in any of the information provided to the regulator in or with the application for approval of sections of the training manual relating to relevant individuals or in response to a requirement from the regulator under regulation 66(4).
2 No change may be made to any of the following items referred to in the training manual without the approval of the regulator—
(a) the scope of the training for relevant individuals carried out by or on behalf of the licensee (“the training”);
(b) the locations where the training is carried out;
(c) the course structure and training methods adopted for the training;
(d) the use of instructors in the training;
(e) the standards of competence set for each role in relation to the licensed activities;
(f) the facilities and equipment used in the training, including the simulated training devices and aircraft where appropriate;
(g) the arrangements for medical examinations for crew and spaceflight participants.
3 The regulator may not approve a change to any of the matters referred to in paragraph (2) if amending the training manual to reflect that change would in the regulator’s opinion mean that the sections of the training manual relating to relevant individuals no longer satisfied the requirements in regulation 67.
4 Regulation 66(2) to (4) applies to an application for approval under paragraph (2), as it applies to an application for approval under regulation 66(2).
