The 5-day Performance-Based Navigation (PBN II) course builds on the knowledge gained in PBN I. Moreover, it equips participants with the skills to apply PBN navigation specifications and manage airspace changes as operational projects.
The course focuses on Terminal Manoeuvring Area (TMA) airspace design. First, participants learn to plan simplified, harmonized, and flexible airspace structures. Then, they practice integrating Instrument Approach Procedures (IAPs), Standard Instrument Departures (SIDs), and Standard Terminal Arrival Routes (STARs). As a result, they can improve traffic flow and ensure safer operations in busy terminal areas.
In addition, the program trains participants in PBN approval processes. They perform flight validation and handle flight inspection responsibilities. Furthermore, the course emphasizes safety assessments, allowing participants to identify risks and implement corrective actions. Through hands-on exercises and real-life case studies, learners reinforce practical knowledge and decision-making skills.
This course suits ANSP managers, airspace planners, and Air Traffic Control Officers (ATCOs). Specifically, participants involved in airspace management, procedure design, or PBN implementation gain clear, actionable skills.
By the end of the course, participants confidently plan, implement, and validate PBN procedures. Consequently, they contribute to safer and more efficient airspace operations. The training equips them to lead projects, enhance operational efficiency, and comply with international regulations.
Finally, enrolling in the Performance-Based Navigation (PBN II) course allows aviation professionals to advance their expertise. Overall, participants gain practical tools to optimize airspace design, manage operational projects, and improve overall air traffic management performance.
