Our role is to enable the achievement of effective human performance in Air Traffic Management (ATM) now and in the future. We work in partnership with Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs) and colleagues in European Air Traffic Management (EATM) to foster the evolution of ATM that meets the increasing demand for safe and efficient air travel.
We aim to bring added value to EATM by:
- Helping to reduce the human contribution to ATM safety occurrences
- Promoting effective and cost-efficient staffing, recruitment, training, certification, and licensing of ATM operational staff
- Ensuring the usability of new ATM procedures and technology
- Reducing resistance to operational change and transition
- Providing medium and long-term concepts and plans for human performance aspects in ATM
- Progressing user-driven and applied R&D for human performance in ATM.
