EBT Programme Elements
Our Training Management Suite has been developed to include the following EBT elements:
Identification of Training Needs
Clever validation within EFOS forms allows for the pinpointing of individual training needs for flight crew
Assessment & Grading System
The built-in VENN Grading System is an objective method of recognised assessment, providing consistent grading of pilot performance
Competency Framework
The framework as published in ICAO Document 9995 and supported by EASA in NPA 2018-07 (B) has been adopted within the EFOS system
Competency Mapping
Existing scenarios and competency mapping recommended by ICAO are built-in to the system. New scenarios can be added with identified appropriate competency mapping
Malfunction Clustering
Major malfunctions are classified by characteristic rather than by the system malfunction. These characteristics are designed to be covered with the appropriate frequency within the EFOS system
Approach Clustering
Different types of conduct of approach with similar methodologies are clustered together to reduce the number of different approach types flight crew have to perform
Instructor Concordance
Robust analytical tools perform the necessary analysis supporting instructor concordance assurance programmes
Data Analysis
Intelligent built-in validation allows for the collection of critical data to compile crucial EBT analytical reports

The EFOS EBT Solution
We have undertaken extensive research and consultation to design and develop an innovative solution to help airlines looking to implement EBT. Our suite of tools are designed to help operators develop and plan a compliant EBT programme.
Explore the key EBT elements of our Training Management Suite below:
The suite of tailored EFOS EBT forms includes built-in competencies and grading solutions, with EBT topic and scenario validation and data process automation undertaken throughout the form capture. This is delivered via the existing functionality of the EFOS Training Management Suite.
Through intelligent form functionality, individual training needs can be highlighted, with specific scenarios recommended to focus on these areas for flight crew candidates.
During mixed implementation these forms will also capture the LPC and OPC.
Our proprietary iPad application allows the trainer to review past performance, but also easily record competencies observed during training.
The forms have been designed for the three phases of EBT; The Evaluation Phase, The Manoeuvres Validation Phase and the Scenario Based Training Phase.
You can explore our prototype EBT Forms here.
A robust set of analytical tools embedded within EFOS will perform the necessary analysis required to support instructor concordance and analyse flight crew performance. Clever validation within EFOS ensures clean data is captured, allowing for powerful data analysis opportunities.
Drill down options allow for comprehensive analysis of data. Reports can be exported in a number of formats for distribution within airlines and inclusion within regulatory reports.
Together with the instructor concordance data and crew feedback, standard analytical reports will be created for use at Training Standards meetings at which Training Managers and SME’s can review and analyse the effectiveness of the EBT programme.
Critically during the Mixed Implementation phase, reports will also be available to compare awarded competency grades against Appendix 9 item pass rates to verify the accuracy of the Grading System of the EBT Programme.
