AMP Competence and Qualification requirements ICAO Annex 3 Para 2.1.5 states: ‘Each Contracting State shall ensure that the designated MET authority complies with the requirements of the WMO in respect of qualifications and training of MET personnel providing services for international air navigation.’ In 2016 the name of 1083 will need to change from Manual to Guide to conform with the nomenclature of the technical regulations. We nearly got it right and had consulted on the name but were given the wrong advice. 21/04/2017 All information was sourced http://www.caem.wmo.int/moodle/

AMP Competence and Qualification requirements Competence requirements defined in WMO No. 49 Technical Regulations WMO AMP competence Standards are now included in WMO-No.49 Technical Regulations, Volume I Qualification requirements for AMF only defined in Volume I of WMO-No.49 WMO No. 1083 Manual on the Implementation of Education and Training Standards in Meteorology and Hydrology provides further guidance In 2016 the name of 1083 will need to change from Manual to Guide to conform with the nomenclature of the technical regulations.

Aeronautical Meteorological Personnel Aeronautical Meteorological Forecasters Satisfy competence requirements by December 2013 (specified by CAeM) Satisfy the BIP-M qualification requirements (for the area and airspace of responsibility and in compliance with aviation user requirements, international regulations, local procedures and priorities ) by December2016 Aeronautical Meteorological Observers Satisfy competence requirements by November 2013 (specified by CAeM) By end of November 2013 By end of November 2016 (remove the classified as Meteorologist) as we do not state this. There is a subtle and implicit link through the BIP-M but it is not stated and this will drag us back to 2003 if we state it. 21/04/2017 All information was sourced http://www.caem.wmo.int/moodle/

Quality Management System Ability to demonstrate conformance with the AMP competence Standards by December 1st, 2013. Quality Management System Competence I would do this as an animation Have the QMS come in 16 Nov 2012? Then the competence standards, a little smaller than now 1 Dec 2013 then add quals 1 Dec 2016. You could have a little calendar in the corner that gives the dates 21/04/2017 All information was sourced http://www.caem.wmo.int/moodle/

Third level The critical level At this level you adapt the global competence standards to the national conditions and requirements related to the area and airspace of responsibility the impact of meteorological phenomena and parameters on aviation operations aviation user requirements, international regulations, local procedures and priorities Capabilities of the meteorological service provider These are the national competencies and will be the basis of the national assessment

Goal of Competence Assessments To demonstrate that Aeronautical Meteorological Personnel (AMP) are competent. Not perfection; rather, it is to document the assessment and to have processes in place to identify deficiencies to ensure ongoing improvement. Every assessment system will have deficiencies which will need to be documented and addressed. 21/04/2017 All information was sourced http://www.caem.wmo.int/moodle/

What is Competence Assessment ? Moving from: « Tell me what you know » This is knowledge and traditionally related to qualifications Moving to « Show me what you can do » This is about job performance and competence 21/04/2017 All information was sourced http://www.caem.wmo.int/moodle/
