CAAP ATS Training Focus Group

"Our value preference determine our lifestyle and our characters. One's choice of values must be guided by the following:
•permanent over temporary values
•values favored by many over preferred by few
•values that give greater satisfaction over those provide short-lived pleasure." - Blaise Alain Villa

Blaise lives by what she says. Every word she says has a resonance. Her presentation undoubtedly provide sound direction to a new employee on the values that an ideal government employee, as well as a person, should acquire and apply.

" ATS goes beyond just controlling the aircraft. It provides services that help ensure the safety, efficiency, and regularity of air travel."
- oriel galvez

Oriel is a young and competent TFG Trainer whose dedication to the group is apparent. Yeng was tasked with lecturing on the Overview of CAAP Services. Despite admitting that he is not used to giving lectures, he clearly performed well last Thursday.

" Let's Honor God by taking care of and by respecting our body.
And don't forget the power of first impression. Smell good, look good and feel good." -Alfred Martin Hermosilla

Alfred' s lecture was light, fun and enriching. A THREE-IN-ONE Training Officer from Davao Approach who undoubtedly lives by what he preaches.

"Respect is given unless you lose it. Respect should be the default" -dave quiambao

This was one of Dave's quotes in his lecture about Gender and Development. (GAD) Dave made the lecture remarkably engaging, interesting and neutral.
He is the perfect resource person on the subject.

AIR TRAFFIC SERVICE TRAINING FOCUS GROUP CONDUCTS PROFICIENCY TRAINING

In preparation for the implementation and delivery of Introductory Trainings for the newly hired ATCS, the TFG conducted a whole-day Proficiency Check on September 19, 2024. The activity aims to prepare, assess and validate the trainers' proficiency in the delivery of the different modules.

The Introductory Training has the following modules: ICAO and CAAP, Overview of CAAP Services, R.A 6713, Values and Work Ethics, Employees Benefits, Introduction to GAD and Proper Grooming. The said training is similar to NEOP Course offered by the CATC.

"I swell with pride witnessing the commendable performance and instructional talents of Alfred Hermosilla (Davao Approach Asst. FTO for Surveillance), Dave Quiambao (ACC Training Staff) Blaise Villa (Mactan Approach Asst. FTO) and Oriel Galvez (Mactan Approach Training Staff/Admin Officer). To think that these ATMOs have not undergone the Basic Instructional Techniques, yet they deliver the lessons in a dynamic, engaging and well-structured manner." A. Pasaje, the Lead Trainer of the ATS Training Focus enthused.

"Proficiency check of the trainers/lecturers is important to ensure the quality delivery of the modules." Mary Grace Dalumpines also shared.

Likewise, the assessors who shared instructional inputs and who performed the evaluation on site and online were TFG members who had BIT trainings.

Onsite evaluators were Arlene Pasaje (ATS Training Team Lead Trainer) Mary Grace Dalumpines (Approach Division), Cecile Hortado (Manila Approach Training Staff) while the on-line evaluators were Cherry Tempongko (Davao Tower Asst Chief (Admin) and Henson Sorreda (ACC FTO).

Another set of TFG trainers will be doing lectures on September 26, 2024 at the ATMC Briefing Room.

Insightful inputs on the new trends in Air Traffic Management Trainings were shared by Andreas Fredriksson and Peter Kantner, the Entry Point North resource persons, to the CAAP Director General for Operations Edgardo G. Diaz and to some members of the ATS training Focus Group on August 29, 2024.

" We train our students in an exclusive international environment characterized by consideration and mutual respect. In every aspect of training, we practice JUST CULTURE - treating every student equally and fairly."
