Most attempts to validate the effectiveness of Crew Resource Management (CRM) training have focused on assessing the trainees' reactions to their CRM training. This report describes the results of a large-scale survey of pilots' perceptions of and experiences in their training, focusing on their responses to a series of questions ...
AIR and the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) have created a new examination for assessing the human resource (HR) knowledge of graduating college students seeking HR careers.
Computer games have the capacity to engage the player, are inexpensive, and are readily available. These three qualities suggest possible value as a training medium, even though existing aviation game software has not been designed specifically for training or crew interactions. Reactions of pilots participating in this research indicated that ...

This report summarizes prior efforts to provide guidance in resolving the key issues confronting the development of a national outcome-based reporting system for adult education programs.
In this article we use a multifacet measurement technique, the multifacet Rasch model, to analyze the results of an IRR-training program. Our approach is an alternative to the procedures—congruency, consistency, agreement (rwg), sensitivity, and systematic differences—currently used during IRR training within the airline industry. ...
The Aviation Safety Action Program, which collects de-identified incident reports from line pilots regarding threats to safety, is very similar to NASA’s Aviation Safety Reporting System, except that it is carrier-specific. This review—which summarizes the state-of-the art in aviation error reporting, classification, and analysis—serves as the foundation for our future ...
