1.) What Is It About?
This training course covers the legal requirements from the relevant EASA regulations, in particular Part 21, Subpart G, as well as other aviation regulatory relevant subparts. The focus is on the practical application and implementation of these requirements within the Quality Management System (QMS) of Production Organisations (POA) in the aviation industry.
Practical topic examples:
- Prototyping within production preparation and compliance demonstration
- Inspection planning, inspection procedures, and records (ATP and ATR) as part of conformity evidence
- Interface management between DOA–POA, DOA–IPO, and PO–PO to ensure smooth processes
During the training, the correct use of specific terms is also practiced and their meaning in the quality management system of a manufacturing company (POA) worked out.
2.) Training Content

3.) Target Group
This training is designed for technical and managerial personnel from Production Organisations (POA) in the aviation industry who:
- are seeking initial approval as a production organisation
- want to extend their scope of approval
- require a refresher and update of aviation regulatory knowledge to maintain an existing approval and ensure personnel qualification
Typical participants include:
- Managers (Accountable Manager – ACM)
- Quality Managers (QM)
- Head of Production (HoP)
- Production planners / work preparation (AV / AVOR)
- Certifying Staff (CS) and other inspection personnel

4.) Framework Conditions And Options
4.1. Focus and priorities
The training is designed for production organisations (POA) that—depending on their rating, such as:
- A rating (aircraft production)
- B rating (engines or propellers)
- C1/C2 rating (parts and appliances production)
—want to optimise their processes or extend their approval.
Depending on the scope of approval and operational needs, the training content can be customised to specifically address the requirements of the respective rating and EASA Part 21 regulations.
4.2. Participation requirements
Basic knowledge of aviation regulations and industry quality standards is beneficial, but not mandatory. By prior agreement, the training level can be adapted to the participants’ prior knowledge and qualifications.
