FOREWORD

The purpose of this document is to provide information and guidance to the Licensing Authority on the implementation of the Standards of Annex 1 - Personnel Licensing related to the approval of training organizations. The first edition of Doc 9841 was developed by the Flight Crew Licensing and Training Panel in 2004 and was focused exclusively on flight training entities. This latest edition is significantly expanded in scope and now deals with the approval of training organizations which provide training services for the issue of an aviation personnel licence or rating. This manual should be used in conjunction with Annex 1.

Note.- Although not falling under the criteria of training specifically for the issue of a licence or a rating, flight crew undergoing approved training for the maintenance of competency or for gaining an operational qualification that does not fall under the training criteria outlined in Annex 6 - Operation of Aircraft, Part I - International Commercial Air Transport - Aeroplanes, Chapter 9, 9.3, or Part III - International Operations - Helicopters, Section II, Chapter 7, 7.3, should receive such training from an approved training organization.

Comments on this manual would be appreciated. They will be taken into account in the preparation of subsequent editions. Comments concerning the manual should be addressed to:
