thorough review, evaluation and testing of programs, systems, and methods of
compliance.

The certification process consists of the following five phases:


• Pre-application phase,
• Formal application phase,
• Document compliance phase,
• Demonstration and inspection phase, and
• Certification phase.

2. PRE-APPLICATION PHASE

Preliminary Assessment. Upon initial contact from an applicant requesting part 147
certification, the DGCA will conduct the preliminary assessment. During preliminary
assessment meeting only basic information and general requirement might be
assessed and discussed, these includes:
• Legal aspect of applicant
• Desired date of operations
• Curriculum and training procedures manual preparations
• Qualification of management personnel
• Training facilities, instructional equipment, tool, material and shop
equipment.

The proposed applicant will provide complete information and data concerning the
ratings sought. After preliminary assessment the DAAO should make a
determination if the proposed applicant is qualified or not to apply for certification.
The applicant may request the other preliminary assessment at least 60 days after
the date of the applicant failed the preliminary assessment.

Establish Certification Team. When it is determined to proceed with the


certification process, the DGCA establishes the team members to conduct the
certification. The team will consist of at least two Maintenance Inspector from the

3) List of Instructors and Qualifications. The certificate number, license


number, ratings, and subjects must be listed for each instructor. There
must be at least 1 certificated or licensed instructor for every 25 students in
each shop or laboratory class. Evaluate the suitability of non-certificated or
licensed instructors to teach certain general courses on an individual basis.

4) Student Enrollment Statement. This statement indicates the maximum


number of students to be taught for each rating during each enrollment
period. Do not count students enrolled in other non-DGCA-approved
courses toward the maximum allowable part 147 enrollment.

NOTE:
Non-DGCA-approved courses may not detract from the part 147
organizations ability to provide for a quality education (due to facility
overcrowding, equipment over use, etc.). PTIs must be cognizant of the
effect non-DGCA-approved courses may pose.

5) Diagram and Description of Facilities. This description must include a


facility layout plan indicating the relative location of classrooms to
shops/laboratories, including dimensions, and the relative location of each
facility to each other facility when there is more than one site or location for
the organization.

6) Inventory of Equipment, Materials, and Tools. The inventory must detail


which tools the organization will provide and which tools the students must
furnish.

7) Accept or Deny Formal Application. Acceptance or denial of the formal


application is based on inclusion of all required materials as detailed in the
pre-application meeting. The proposed methods of compliance are not
being evaluated at this stage. Based on the initial review of the formal
application and any meetings with the applicant, accept or deny the
application. Advise the applicant in writing of the results. If the application is
denied, return the application and attachments with a letter stating the
reasons for denial.

13
SI 147-01 Edition 1
September 2017

4. DOCUMENT COMPLIANCE PHASE

Review Documents. Thoroughly review the applicant’s curriculum and other


documents to ensure that each complies with the applicable regulations. Approve,
accept, or deny each document as appropriate. Documents reviewed during this
phase must include:
1) DAAO Form No. 147-01.
2) Statement of Compliance (SOC).
3) Curriculum (refer to section 147.29 and Chapter III of this Staff Instruction).
4) Instructor requirements and qualifications (refer to section 147.21).
5) Contract agreement for facilities or instructional equipment (if any)
6) Training procedures manual (refer to section 147.31 and Chapter V of this
Staff Instructions)

Document Deficiencies. If you find deficiencies in any document submitted by the


applicant, return the document with a letter identifying the deficiency.

NOTE:
The certification team must be ready to offer suggestions, but not mandate how to
improve the product but should avoid writing the applicant’s documents.

If Necessary, Terminate the Certification Process. If the documents submitted are


consistently found to be of insufficient quality, schedule a meeting with the applicant
to discuss each deficiency in detail. Advise the applicant that continuing the
certification process is impractical and the option for the applicant to reapply for
certification.

5. DEMONSTRATION AND INSPECTION PHASE

In this phase, the certification team makes an onsite inspection to determine whether
the applicant’s proposed procedures and programs are effective. At this time, the
applicant demonstrates that the facilities and equipment are safe and satisfactory.
Emphasis is on compliance with the regulations. Throughout the demonstration and
inspection phase, the CPM must ensure that each aspect of the applicant’s required
demonstration is first documented, then observed, and then either approved or
disapproved.

Evaluate Suitability of Facilities, Equipment, Tools, and Materials.


1) Facilities. The instructional aids, laboratory and shop equipment, and
physical layout of the facilities must meet the requirements outlined in
sections 147.23, 147.25, and 147.27. The applicant should keep in
mind that the facilities must constitute an environment suitable for
learning. Excessive noise, dust, fumes, heat, cold, and clutter could
distract the applicant during development of the AMTO facility. The
ratings that the organization proposes to obtain will influence the layout
of the AMTO facility.
2) Equipment. An AMTO is required to have sufficient shop equipment in
place and in satisfactory operating condition to adequately serve the

14
SI 147-01 Edition 1
September 2017

student enrollment and meet shop/project subject requirements. The


equipment must be situated so students can operate it in a safe and
efficient manner.
3) Tools. The AMTO must provide an inventory of special tools required
to provide instruction. All special tools must be in satisfactory working
condition for the purpose for which they are to be used. Section 147.27
requires the AMTO to furnish an adequate supply of special tools
appropriate to the ratings and curriculum of the AMTO.
4) Materials. The AMTO must provide a list of materials required for
instruction. The organization must have sufficient materials in stock and
properly stored to provide for the approved student enrollment.
5) Quantities of Necessary Items. The amount of materials and the
kinds of equipment and tools students will use also depends on the
curriculum and number of students. For example, the applicant must
demonstrate that the organization has the appropriate tools and
equipment to accomplish each project.

Observe Demonstrations and Conduct Inspections. Verify that the applicant’s


proposed procedures and programs are effective, and that facilities and equipment
are safe and satisfactory. Follow the procedures in Chapter IV. Verify compliance
with the regulations as follows:
• Facilities meet the requirements of section 147.23;
• Instructional aids meet the requirements of section 147.25; and
• Materials, special tools, and shop equipment meet the requirements of
section 147.27.

Document Deficiencies. If deficiencies exist, provide a list of discrepancies to the


applicant. Schedule a meeting to discuss in detail the appropriate corrective action to
be taken. Place documentation in the certification file.
If the applicant does not demonstrate compliance or if discrepancies cannot be
resolved, send a letter of denial and a list of discrepancies. Inform the applicant that
the CPM must be notified in writing of all corrective action taken.

6. CERTIFICATION PHASE

An applicant is entitled to the issuance of an Aircraft Maintenance Training


Organization Certificate with appropriate rating(s) and OpSpecs after accomplishing
the following:
1) The certification process is completed;
2) Each unsatisfactory item has been corrected;
3) The DGCA has determined that the applicant has met all regulatory
requirements and understands the related responsibilities;
4) The DGCA has determined that the applicant is capable of complying
with CASR 147 on a continuing basis; and

CHAPTER III. EVALUATE CURRICULLUM/REVISION AND INSTRUCTOR


QUALIFICATIONS

1. GENERAL

A. Hours of Instruction
1) Minimum Hours Instruction Specified by section 147.29. The number of
hours of instruction offered by a curriculum must be at least the minimum
specified by section 147.29. The training organization may offer more hours of
instruction; however, regardless of the number of hours offered, the DGCA
must approve the entire AMTO curriculum at the time of initial certification or
any subsequent revisions to the curriculum as requested by the AMTO.

2) Deviations to the Curriculum. The following blocks of time are not to be


included in calculating the minimum number of instructional hours specified in
section 147.29:
• Time spent in taking the DGCA knowledge test; and
• Specific DGCA test-prep courses.

B. Order of Instruction. The curriculum must describe the order of course


progression for each rating offered. For example, basic electricity would be a
prerequisite for Aircraft Electrical Systems. The order of instruction or
prerequisites must be identified and evaluated by the DGCA during the
curriculum approval process during initial certification and during review of
subsequent curriculum revisions.

1) Interruption in the Order of Instruction (Curriculum). Interruptions causing


deviations from the approved course curriculum (however frequent) must be
reported by the AMTO to the principal training inspector (PTI). Reporting of an
interruption in the order of instruction allows for discretionary surveillance by
the PTI. Allowances to deviate from the approved curriculum order of
instruction may be permitted on a case-by-case basis (inoperative mockups,
hospitalized instructor, etc.) in accordance with procedures described in the
curriculum and/or the training organization’s operating procedures.

2) Revisions to the Curriculum. Deviations that are deemed to be continuous,


on-going will necessitate a revision to the curriculum and subsequent DGCA
approval. The assigned PTI will monitor all interruptions in the order of
instruction to ensure that these interruptions do not detract from the quality of
instruction. Prolonged or extended continuous interruptions in the order of
instruction may require DGCA approval by the appropriate DGCA.

NOTE:
The DGCA does not consider student-induced interruptions in training due to
absence (illness, financial problems, vacation, etc.) as a change in the order of
instruction. These types of interruptions may require makeup provisions
covering the missed subject matter.

18
SI 147-01 Edition 1
September 2017

C. Subjects Prescribed by Part 147 & 65. The curriculum must cover the subjects
and items prescribed in section 147.29, and part 65 appendices A or B, as
applicable.

1) Subjects that are submitted for approval as part of the curriculum will not be
made part of the curriculum until approved by the DGCA.
2) Additional subjects/courses that are required by the training organization for
their purposes (i.e., degree programs) must not be submitted as part of the
DGCA-approved curriculum.
3) A distinction must be made between additional courses/subjects that are part
of the approved curriculum under part 147, and those that are not.
4) The teaching of additional subject material beyond the requirements of
part 147 & 65 will require additional instruction hours beyond those required
by section 147.29.
5) The teaching of subject items beyond the requirements of part 147 & 65 will
not require additional instructional hours beyond those required by section
147.29.

D. Practical Application Projects


1) The curriculum must list the practical projects that must be completed for each
subject item. There must be sufficient practical projects to address the
requirements of part 147 and part 65 appendices A or B, as applicable. The
curriculum must include enough detail to evaluate the practical projects for
correct teaching level, for equipment and tools needed, and for performance
standards and objective grading criteria.
2) The curriculum must show an appropriate amount of time for each subject
area, Maintenance Inspector who have oversight for the operation of, an
AMTO will review and monitor curriculums to ensure they do not provide
insufficient or excessive time allotments based on criteria associated with the
rule.
3) The curriculum must provide that each task in each subject item is
accomplished. For example, if a project requires that the student inspect and
repair to accomplish a practical project, a requirement for both inspection and
repair must be included in the project plan.
4) The Maintenance Inspector should ensure that instructional hours for each
subject are distributed in a manner which allows both adequate theory
instruction (Levels 1, 2, and 3) and sufficient lab/shop, instruction equipment
(Levels 2 and 3) to obtain the required practical application (teaching level) for
the item being taught.

E. Scheduling of Tests. Upon completion of each curriculum subject, a test must


be scheduled. Additional tests and quizzes may be administered during the
subject being taught.

F. Grading Criteria. An accepted academic standard for passing (including the


DGCA written exams) is a minimum of 70 percent. However, the training
organization may require a higher minimum passing grade. All theoretical and
practical portions of each subject listed in the curriculum must be passed to the
approved grading standard. Each practical project must be passed to the
approved standard.

19
SI 147-01 Edition 1
September 2017

G. Revisions to the Curriculum. Changes to the approved curriculum must be


approved before implementation. Changes in the curriculum may include
changes in any of the following:
• Hours of instruction;
• Testing;
• Training subject;
• Required practical projects with corresponding lab or shop hours
• Teaching level

H. Instructure Requirements.
1) An instructor must hold an DGCA Certificate/License with category/ratings
appropriate to the subjects that the instructor teaches, and comply with
section 147.21.
2) Individuals listed as instructors, lab assistants, or teaching assistants should
also hold appropriate Certificate/License with category/ratings appropriate.
However, the AMTO may provide specialized instructors who are not
Certificate/License to teach mathematics, physics, basic electricity, basic
hydraulics, drawing, and similar subjects.

I. Student/Teacher Ratios. Section 147.21 requires at least 1 instructor for each


25 students in each shop or laboratory class.

NOTE: The PTI should monitor the student/teacher ratios and alert the
training organization when the ratios have/will exceed the limitations
set forth by section 147.21. The training organization has the option to
add another instructor(s) on a temporary or permanent basis
depending on the staffing needs at the time. This will assure the
student/teacher ratio of no more than 25 will be maintained
continuously. Under certain circumstances, the AMTO has the option to
apply for an exemption to the rule.

J. Performance. The PTI should encourage the training organization to provide for
regular assessment of instructor performance.

K. Reference Material. The training organization may provide the training manual
or handout to student containing all subject to be taught, and technical publication
to support the training enrollment.

2. PROCEDURES

A. Review the Curriculum. For an initial certification, thoroughly analyze the


curriculum before the date of the team inspection. Ensure the following:
• The number of hours meets the requirements of section 147.29;
• The curriculum fulfills the requirements of part 147 and part 65 appendices A
or B;
• Instructor qualifications match the subjects being taught;
• All subjects taught to Level 2 or 3 involve some practical hands-on projects or
skill demonstration;

20
SI 147-01 Edition 1
September 2017

• Instructional hours for each subject should be distributed in a manner which


allows both adequate theory instruction (Levels 1, 2, and 3) and sufficient
lab/shop instruction (Levels 2 and 3) to obtain the required practical
application (teaching level) for the item being taught;
• The curriculum shows a list of minimum required training organization tests to
be given. This could be a separate document, or be provided within the
course outlines;
• The curriculum states the minimum standards for a student to successfully
complete the requirements for DGCA certification;

B. Review Operating Rules. Review the training organization’s operating policies


and procedures (Training Procedures Manual), in accordance with Operating
Rules in part 147 subpart C. The training procedures manual should describe how
the AMTO will comply with the regulations which are not addressed within the
curriculum. The training organization’s operating procedures may be included in a
Letter of Compliance (i.e., an SOC) or within a separate manual or document.

C. Review Instructor Qualifications. Review the instructors hold an DGCA


Certificate/License with category/ratings appropriate to the subjects that the
instructor teaches, and comply with section 147.21.

D. Review References Material. Review the training manual or student handout, to

CHAPTER IV. EVALUATE FACILITIES, FACILITIES, EQUIPMENT, MATERIALS,


AND TOOLS.

1. GENERAL

A. Pre- And Post-Inspection Activity


1) Initial Certification. The certification team will approve the curriculum before
formal inspection of the facility. During the pre-application meeting, the
certification project manager (CPM) may request a briefing and an informal
inspection of the facility.

2) Added Rating/Curriculum/Location Change. The AMTO must request in


advance any change to its rating or curriculum. When adding a rating or
executing a change in curriculum or location that affects facilities, equipment,
materials, tools, etc., the office manager or airworthiness unit supervisor will
determine whether one Maintenance Inspector or a team is necessary to
accomplish the site inspection.
a. To add a rating, see the appropriate paragraphs on changes to curriculum
in Chapter III, and refer to the appropriate Part 147 sections on changes to
equipment, materials, tools, and records found below.
b. For changes to curriculum, see curriculum requirements as found in
Chapter III.
c. For change in location, the DGCA must make a detailed analysis of the
change in plans and their effect on the following:
• The students in training, whether or not in actual attendance during
the time of the change.
• Instructional hours as shown in the curriculum. There must not be a
loss of instructional hours as a result of these changes.
• The training organization’s method of meeting the certification
requirements, particularly space requirements and curriculum
according to part 147, section 147.23 and 147.29.
d. The training organization must receive approval in writing.
e. Revise operations specifications (OpSpecs) as appropriate to reflect
applicable changes.

3) Amendment to or Transfer of Certificate. The AMTO must apply for a


change to its certificate if changing the location of the AMTO. The training
organizations must notify the DGCA in writing at least 30 days before the date
of the change. The DGCA may prescribe conditions the training organization
must follow while moving to the new address/location. If the AMTO
accomplishes the change in location without approval, the Certificate of
Approval AMTO 147 will be suspended or revoked. (Refer to section 147.53.)
a. Sale or Transfer of Assets. A new certificate number is not required when
there is a change in ownership or operator name, but the privileges of an
AMTO Certificate of approval are not transferable. If the holder of the
Certificate of Approval AMTO 147 sells or transfers its assets, the new
owner must apply for an amended certificate.
b. Change in Ownership. A change in ownership may or may not affect the
status of an AMTO. If the operational relationship that established an

22
SI 147-01 Edition 1
September 2017

AMTO continues unchanged, a change to the certificate number may not


be required. If that relationship no longer exists, the certificate number
identifying the AMTO cannot be retained by the new owner.

B. Demonstration Activity
Ensure compliance with regulations as follows:
• That facilities meet the requirements of section 147.23;
• That instructional aids meet the requirements of section147.25; and
• That materials, tools, and shop equipment meet the requirements of
section 147.27.

1) Facilities
The instructional equipment, shop equipment, hand tools, and physical layout
of the building must meet the requirements outlined in
sections 147.23, 147.25, and 147.27. The DGCA Inspector should keep in
mind that the facility must constitute an environment suitable for learning. The
AMTO should defer facility issues concerning safety suitability or industry
standards to National guidelines specific to Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) requirements and regulations.

a. Classroom Areas. An area suitable for classroom instruction may not be


suitable for lab and/or shop. With appropriate scheduling and
consideration of factors such as ventilation, lighting, noise, and
temperature control, an area appropriate for lab and/or shop may be
acceptable for classroom instruction.
b. Shop Environment. Ventilation must be such that it properly removes
fumes from painting, fueling, degreasing, composite areas, etc., from the
immediate work area and does not allow them to pass into other
instructional areas.
c. Facility Size and Location.
• Facilities must be adequate to hold the number of authorized students
participating in any of the shop/lab projects designated for that area.
• Facility locations and class schedules must be so that students can
travel between classes without cutting into instructional time. DGCA
Inspector should pay special attention to situations in which the
students cannot go easily and quickly from one class to another.

2) Equipment
a. Instructional Equipment.
1. The instructional aids required in section 147.25 must be appropriate
to the scope and depth of the curriculum of the training organization.
The DGCA Inspector must determine whether the complexity of
instructional aids is appropriate to the specific teaching level of the
subject item.
2. In some situations, the training organization may choose to use
active aircraft for instructional purposes in the shop. This is
permissible as long as the aircraft is on the premises at the time of
instruction. The Maintenance Inspector must remind the training
organization that active aircraft used to comply with section 147.25

23
SI 147-01 Edition 1
September 2017

must become part of the approved instructional equipment and


must be available as specified in section 147.45.
3. The DGCA Inspector must ensure compliance with requirements
for the ratio of instructional equipment to students in each shop
course. Section 147.25 requires that a maximum of eight students
may work at any one unit of equipment at a time. However, the
DGCA Inspector may determine whether or not eight students are
too many to complete a certain project safely and competently,
such as when using live aircraft for the demonstration of gear
retraction systems.

b. Shop Equipment.
1. The DGCA Inspector must determine if enough equipment is in
place and in satisfactory operating condition to serve the student
enrollment adequately and meet shop project requirements.
2. The location of equipment must be so that its operation can be in a
safe and efficient manner. The installation of large standing
equipment must be secure. The placement of large pieces of
equipment should provide sufficient aisle space so that the students
can move about freely. The DGCA must determine if the floor is
free from clutter and items such as extension cords.

3) Materials
The training organization must have sufficient materials in stock and properly
stored to provide for the approved student enrollment. To ensure adequate
instruction, the amount and variety of stock should directly reflect the
requirements of the curriculum.

4) Tools
a. Tool Standards. For subjects taught at Level 3 or practical training, all
tools must be in satisfactory working condition and of the proper kind
for their intended purpose. Section 147.27 requires the training
organization to have an adequate supply of materials and tools
appropriate to the curriculum of the training organization.
b. Student Hand Tool Policy. The training organization may either
provide common hand tools or require students to furnish their own. In
either case, the training organization must establish a policy on
provision of common hand tools. The training organization must list any
tools that it requires the student to furnish. The training organization will
furnish special tools, such as cylinder hold-down wrenches,
micrometers, etc.

2. PROCEDURES

A. Review the Applicant’s File. Before inspecting the facility, review the applicant’s
application and DGCA file. Check history for previous noncompliant trends.
Check the curriculum or proposed curriculum for currency. Take a copy of the
curriculum and OpSpecs. Prior to visiting the facility, make sure you have a copy
of the facility diagram to confirm that the facility layout mirrors the diagram.

24
SI 147-01 Edition 1
September 2017

Review OpSpecs to ensure that all mandatory paragraphs are current.


Additionally, determine if any applicable, optional OpSpecs are required and
issued.

B. Inspect the Facility. Compare the curriculum against the instructional aids, shop
equipment, and hand tools at the site. Compare the physical layout with the
facility layout plan.
1. Check the instructional aids for agreement with the curriculum.
Determine if the items required for each course are actually at the site
as required by the approved student enrollment level.
2. Determine whether all instructional aid are actually operable and safe
to use. For example, a retractable landing gear instruction device
should operate properly.
3. Ensure that adequate stocks of operational/maintenance instructions,
parts manuals, and technical data are at the site, according to the
requirements of the curriculum.
4. Determine if the number and size of classrooms and shop areas are
consistent with the facility layout submitted with the curriculum. Ensure
that the lighting and ventilation are adequate.
5. Verify that the tools, materials, and shop equipment match the
inventories required by the curriculum. Ensure the proper storage of
these items.
6. Verify that a recordkeeping system is in place for tool inventory and
updating of technical instructional materials.
7. Determine that AMTO maintains a current set of Opspec.
8. Determine that AMTO is operating in accordance with the Opspec.

CHAPTER V. EVALUATE QUALITY ASSURANCE SYSTEM & TRAINING


PROCEDURES MANUAL

1. General

A. Quality Assurance System


The aircraft maintenance training organization shall establish a quality assurance
system accepted by DGCA including:
1. an independent audit function to monitor training enrollment standard, the
testing method, instructor qualification and training, training facilities,
instructional equipment, material, special tool and shop equipment
compliance with and adequacy of the procedures, and 

2. a feedback system of audit findings to monitor corrective and preventive
actions. 


The independent audit procedure should ensure that training enrollment standard,
the testing method, instructor qualification and training, training facilities, instructional
equipment, material, special tool and shop equipment compliance with CASR Part
147. The compliance should be checked at least once in every 24 months and may
be carried out as one complete single exercise or subdivided over a 24-month period
in accordance with a scheduled plan. 


The primary objective of the quality system is to enable the training organization to
satisfy itself that it can deliver properly trained students and that the organization
remains in compliance with CASR Part 147. 


The independent audit is a process of routine sample checks of all aspects of the
training organization’s ability to carry out all training and examinations to the required
standards. It represents an overview of the complete training system and does not
replace the need for instructors to ensure that they carry out training to the required
standard. 


A report should be raised each time an audit is carried out describing what was
checked and any resulting findings. The report should be sent to the affected
department(s) for rectification action giving target rectification dates. Possible
rectification dates may be discussed with the affected department(s) before the
quality department confirms such dates on the report. The affected department(s)
should rectify any findings and inform the quality department of such rectification. 


The aircraft maintenance training organization training may have a dedicated quality
audit group whose sole function is to conduct audits, raise finding reports and follow
up to ensure that findings are being rectified, or use competent personnel from one
section/department not responsible for the function or procedure to check the
section/department that is responsible subject to the overall planning and
implementation being under the control of the quality manager. 


The management control and follow up system should be established, this function is
to ensure that all findings resulting from the independent audit are corrected in a

26
SI 147-01 Edition 1
September 2017

timely manner and to enable the accountable manager to remain properly informed
of the state of compliance. Apart from rectification of findings the accountable
manager should hold routine meetings to check progress on rectification except that
in the large training organization such meetings may be delegated on a day to day
basis to the quality manager as long as the accountable manager meets at least
once per year with the senior staff involved to review the overall performance. 


B. Training Procedure Manual


The aircraft maintenance training organization is responsible for develop the Training
Procedure Manual and sent to DGCA for acceptance. The training organization shall
ensure that the training procedure manual is amended as necessary to keep the
information contained therein up to date.

The training procedure manual shall have statement of compliance, declaration, and
signed by accountable manager, including the following information:

1. Description of Training Organization:


a. The legal (registered) name of the training organization and trading

CHAPTER VI. SURVEILLANCE OF PART 147 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE


TRAINING ORGANIZATIONS

1. GENERAL

A. Surveillance Objectives
This chapter provides guidance for conducting surveillance of certificated Aircraft
Maintenance Training Organization (AMTO). The primary objective of surveillance is
to provide the DGCA, through the conduct of a variety of inspections, with an
accurate, real time, and comprehensive evaluation of the safety status of the air
transportation system. This surveillance program objective is accomplished by
inspectors performing the following:
• Determining each maintenance training organization's compliance with
regulatory requirements and safe operating practices
• Detecting changes as they occur in the operational environment
• Detecting the need for regulatory, managerial, and operational changes
• Measuring the effectiveness of previous corrective actions.

B. Surveillance Scheduling
CASR 147.55 allows inspection of a AMTO at any time to determine its compliance
with part 147.

1) Formal Inspections. The purpose of a formal inspection is to determine


whether the AMTO continues to meet the requirements under which it was
certificated.
a) The surveillance program (DAAO Form No. 147-12) will be developed to
determine the AMTO continues to meet certification requirements. The
inspection is normally made once every 3 months in certain surveillance
area by using specific checklist:

No. Surveillance Area Form is utilized


1. Training Procedure Manual and DAAO Form No. 147-05

4. Instructure Qualification DAAO Form No. 147-08
5. References Manual DAAO Form No. 147-09
6. Record System DAAO Form No. 147-10

b) At the inspection exit briefing, the inspector must provide the AMTO with
notification of discrepancies found during the formal inspection, record and
monitor the discrepancies in DGCA data base (IMSIS). The DGCA
Inspector will provide a written follow-up list of areas of noncompliance to
the AMTO. The AMTO must initiate immediate corrective action to
demonstrate regulatory compliance and must provide the DGCA with
written notification of the action taken.

30
SI 147-01 Edition 1
September 2017

NOTE: In the written notification, the inspector must explain to the AMTO
the timeframe within which the discrepancies must be corrected.

c) Before beginning subsequent inspections and surveillance of the AMTO,


the DGCA Inspector will review the AMTO file, the operations
specifications (OpSpecs), approved curriculum, and existing AMTO-
related IMSIS entries to identify any previous deficiencies noted during
previous inspections. The inspector will inspect the AMTO to validate the
level of regulatory compliance in these areas.

2) Informal Inspections. An informal inspection will be less comprehensive than


a formal inspection. This inspection may be unannounced, at the inspector’s
discretion. The purpose of the informal inspection is to evaluate a specific
area of the operating rule for regulatory compliance by the AMTO, or to
ensure the program is effective.

a) The frequency of informal inspections will vary according to the needs of


the individual AMTO and the DGCA workload. At a minimum, however,
there must be no fewer than two informal inspections per AMTO year.
d) The inspector must notify the AMTO in writing of deficiencies found during
the informal inspection. The discrepancies must be recorded and the
record placed in in DGCA data base (IMSIS) for monitoring and reference
and follow-up purposes.
NOTE: In the written notification, the inspector must explain to the AMTO
the timeframe within which the discrepancies must be corrected.

2. PROCEDURE

1) Review DGCA Office Files Relating to the AMTO.


a) Review the AMTO’s approved curriculum, OpSpecs, and DGCA data base
(IMSIS). Take a copy of the curriculum, OpSpecs, and facility layout to the
AMTO site for reference and validation.
b) Check the inspection history, if applicable.
2) Review Enrollment Records. Determine that the number of students
enrolled is not more than the number approved in the AMTO’s application.
Determine if the AMTO can effectively instruct the number of students actually
enrolled.
3) Review Student Records. Determine whether records are available for all
students. Select the records of one or two recently graduated students and
one or two current students, and perform a total verification ensuring:
a) The attendance system shows the hours of absences allowed and makeup
provisions for subject material missed. See Chapter III, Section 1 of this
Staff Instruction
b) The attendance system does not permit the time required to make up
missed material to be deducted from regular instruction time.
c) The approved attendance system is being followed.
d) Recordkeeping meets the requirements of CASR 147.39.

31
SI 147-01 Edition 1
September 2017

4) Examine the System for Determining Final Course Grades. Ensure the
system reliably distinguishes between successful students and unsuccessful
students.
a) Ensure all grade reports and records identified, as part of the approved
grading system, meet the recordkeeping requirements of CASR147.39.
b) Ensure that the approved grading system is being followed.
5) Ensure Maintenance of Instructor Requirements. Determine whether
instructor resources are adequate and effective, meeting the requirements of
CASR 147.21.
a) Check the instructor/student ratio against the maximum allowable ratio of
1:25 in a class shop or lab. If necessary, require a lower ratio in any shop
or lab to provide adequate instruction and supervision of students.
b) Determine if instruction given by specialized instructors is well coordinated
with aviation technical subjects (e.g., math instructors might teach Weight
and Balance (W&B) principles). Evaluate the suitability of non-certificated
instructors to teach certain general courses on an individualized basis.
c) Determine whether the AMTO has positive control over what is taught and
when it is taught, in accordance with its approved curriculum.
d) Observe classes and conduct interviews to determine individual instructor
effectiveness. While it is permissible to talk to instructors and/or students
in an ongoing lab or shop session, try to avoid disrupting any theory class
while it is in session.
e) encourage the AMTO to assess instructor performance regularly and
provide for instructor improvement.
6) Ensure AMTO Space Usage Allows for Appropriate Separation of
Classes in Session (CASR147.23(b)). See Chapter IV of this Staff
Instruction.
7) Ensure AMTO implement the Quality Assurance System. Determine the
internal audit findings and discuss with the AMTO ways of improving the
overall AMTO program. See Chapter V of this Staff Instruction, for guidance.
