Teaching and Learning // Train-the-Trainer (SFI-(A)- / TRI-(A)- part 1)

Are you a captain or First Officer who would like to share expertise and experience with other pilots? In compliance with EASA-FCL.930 (a) (1) requirements, BAFS offers individual and practical qualification for pilots who wish to become a Type Rating Instructor (TRI-A-) or Synthetic Flight Instructor (SFI-A-), valid for all TRI / SFI type- & class rating qualifications.

In addition to subject-specific topics, issues relating to knowledge transfer will be focused on and explained such as teaching, personality, communication, feedback and evaluation.
