However, during the training the majority of the course material and training time shall be at the higher level. (c) Duration: The theoretical training minimum tuition hours are contained in the following table: 15.Feb of 130 Issue: 02

109 For the purpose of the table above, a tuition hour means 60 minutes of teaching and exclude any breaks, examination, revision, preparation and aircraft visit. These hours apply only to theoretical courses for complete aircraft/engine combinations according to the type rating as defined by the Agency. (d) Justification of course duration: 15.Feb of 130 Issue: 02

110 Training courses carried out in a maintenance training organisation approved in accordance with CAO.IRI Part -147 and courses directly approved by CAO.IRI shall justify their hour duration and the coverage of the full syllabus by a training needs analysis based on: the design of the aircraft type, its maintenance needs and the types of operation, detailed analysis of applicable chapters see contents table in point 3.1(e) below, detailed competency analysis showing that the objectives as stated in point 3.1(a) above are fully met. Where the training needs analysis shows that more hours are needed, course lengths shall be longer than the minimum specified in the table. Similarly, tuition hours of differences courses or other training course combinations (such as combined B1/B2 courses), and in cases of theoretical type training courses below the figures given in point 3.1(c) above, these shall be justified to CAO.IRI by the training needs analysis as described above. In addition, the course must describe and justify the following: The minimum attendance required to the trainee, in order to meet the objectives of the course. The maximum number of hours of training per day, taking into account pedagogical and human factors principles. If the minimum attendance required is not met, the certificate of recognition shal l not be issued. Additional training may be provided by the training organisation in order to meet the minimum attendance time. (e) Content: As a minimum, the elements in the Syllabus below that are specific to the aircraft type shall be covered. Additional elements introduced due to type variations, technological changes, etc. shall also be included. The training syllabus shall be focused on mechanical and electrical aspects for B1 personnel, and electrical and avionic aspects for B2. 15.Feb of 130 Issue: 02

114 (f) Multimedia Based Training (MBT) methods may be used to satisfy the theoretical training element either in the classroom or in a virtual controlled environment subject to the acceptance of CAO.IRI approving the training course Practical element (a) Objective: The objective of practical training is to gain the required competence in performing safe maintenance, inspections and routine work according to the maintenance manual and other relevant instructions and tasks as appropriate for the type of aircraft, for example troubleshooting, repairs, adjustments, replacements, rigging and functional checks. It includes the awareness of the use of all technical literature and documentation for the aircraft, the use of specialist/special tooling and test equipment for performing removal and replacement of components and modules unique to type, including any on-wing maintenance activity. (b) Content: At least 50 % of the crossed items in the table below, which are relevant to the particular aircraft type, shall be completed as part of the practical training. Tasks crossed represent subjects that are important for practical training purposes to ensure that the operation, function, installation and safety significance of key maintenance tasks is adequately addressed; particularly where these cannot be fully explained by theoretical training alone. Although the list details the minimum practical training subjects, other items may be added where applicable to the particular aircraft type. Tasks to be completed shall be representative of the aircraft and systems both in complexity and in the technical input required to complete that task. While relatively simple tasks may be included, other more complex tasks shall also be incorporated and undertaken as appropriate to the aircraft type. 15.Feb of 130 Issue: 02
