EMAR 21 Subpart J - Successfully Applying the Requirement

How will this course benefit me?
This two-day course takes a practical approach to the EMAR 21 Subpart J requirement, providing the necessary insight to (a) ensure your organisation is fully compliant to obtain and maintain approval, and (b) to ensure the intelligent adoption of the regulatory intent without adding any unnecessary bureaucracy which could stifle innovation and creativity that is so necessary for design engineers.

Completing this course will:

• Increase your organisation’s levels of compliance by ensuring you are familiar with requirements applicable to your organisation
• Minimise risk to you and your organisation through unwitting non-compliance
• Enable you to discuss elements of the requirements with your National Military Aviation Authority to demonstrate your competence and increase their confidence in order for you to gain more privileges
• Enable you to evaluate the opportunities inherent from harmonisation work undertaken by the European Defence Agency and other emerging European requirements.

 

Key areas of focus
• The European Defence Agency (EDA), the activities of Military Air Worthiness Authorities (MAWA) forum and the relationship with National Military Aviation Authorities
• EMARs and their philosophy
• Summary of all EMAR 21 Subparts so as to put Subpart J in context
• Detailed review of EMAR 21 Subpart J
• Practical advice on the Design Assurance System (including the Exposition, Procedures, Organisation Charts and the roles and responsibilities of CVEs)

For in-company courses, customers are able to add additional modules addressing other EMAR 21 Subparts (and related material). See our competence pathway for information and guidance regarding your options.
