skeyes Technical Training Model (EU)2017/373 compliance path 1) Scope of this presentation Prior 2017 the definition of “ATSEP” was not part of any regulation (only part of ICAO and Eurocontrol Training Guidelines and Specifications) European regulation (EU) 2017/373 now has embedded the definition of ATSEP and includes for all European ANSPs minimum training objectives to be met. As from 2 jan 2020 full compliance with this regulation is compulsory. This presentation describes our roadmap towards this compliancy with the support of our partner EPNB / 3

skeyes Technical Training Model (EU)2017/373 compliance path The current Bluebook pitfalls: way ahead to solutions • Outsourcing common core whenever it’s feasable • Availibility of trainers • Introducing OJTI and assessor concept. • Availibility of trainees • Generic framework for OJTI/Assessor • Heaviness of the continuation training process • Specific checklists per technical unit • OJTI/Assessor training program with EPNB • Proactive Interaction with BSA 8

skeyes Technical Training Model (EU)2017/373 compliance path 3) ATSEP training today and way ahead New: ATSEP definition (EU 2017/373) = ‘air traffic safety electronics personnel (ATSEP)’ means any authorised personnel who are competent to operate, maintain, release from, and return into operations equipment of the functional system. Note: ref EU 373/2017 ‘functional system’ means a combination of procedures, human resources and equipment, including hardware and software, organised to perform a function within the context of ATM/ANS and other ATM network functions; / 10

skeyes Technical Training Model (EU)2017/373 compliance path 3) ATSEP training today and way ahead - Instead of the 2014 interpretation ATSEP = +/- “all technical staff” in 2020 ATSEP is the technical staff compliant to this definition. Are you competent and authorised to ➢ Operate the functional system? ➢ (or) Maintain the functional system? ➢ (or) Release from and return into operations equipment of the functional system? If the answer to one of the 3 questions is yes, then you are an ATSEP. Currently, on 184 technical staff members, 128 can be considered as ATSEP. This approach and the complete skeyes ATSEP training approach are confirmed by BSA on 25/04/2019 . / 11

skeyes Technical Training Model (EU)2017/373 compliance path 3) ATSEP training today and way ahead - Comité Paritaire xx/xx/2019 - Content to be adapted to EU 2017/373 - Proposal : Only keep “static part” in protocol (Legal Service/HR/Trade Unions) & move dynamic part to work instructions (ISO & H R docs). - Refer to Annex XIII of REG 2017/373 for ATSEP initial training content and take in account internal Belgocontrol restructure & agreements with EPNB joint venture - Static data - Protocol « executive summary » text referring to EU 2017/373 and agreements concerning dynamic data - Dynamic data - WIGU 117 « training programme » - Annex V of WIGU 117 « relation between function codes and related training trajectory » - REG 159 « assessment procedure » - WIGU 116 Operational manual for ATSEPs - IDOC 98 list of safety critical systems - Description of ATSEP certificate of competence / 13

skeyes Technical Training Model (EU)2017/373 compliance path 4) Opportunity with EPNB: Strengthening cooperation by optimizing ATSEP training content - ATSEP Initial training (Basic and Qualification modules) is provided by Entry Point North Belgium - Content of ATSEP Initial training will be continuously updated and improved based on feedback from . / 14

skeyes Technical Training Model (EU)2017/373 compliance path - During 2017-2018 ATSEP OJTI and ATSEP Competence assessor modules were followed separately at EPN Malmö - In 2019 both modules have been merged into 1 module of 5 days ATSEP OJTI/CA (combined) training at EPNB. - Various Sessions took place at the EPNB training centre. - 4-9/03/2019 - 8-12/04/2019 - 23-27/9/2019 - Next scheduled 18-22/11/2019 - Approx 50 ATSEP will be certified atsep OJTI/CA on 22/11/2019 / 15

skeyes Technical Training Model (EU)2017/373 compliance path Target: - 2 JAN 2020: ATSEP training full compliancy with Annex XIII of EU 2017/373 - Beyond 2020: Maintain this compliancy with continuous quality improvement. / 16
