CAP 1170 Chapter 1: Instructor certification

Chapter 1

Instructor certification

Becoming a certified instructor and obtaining a CIN

UK aviation security instructors delivering training under the National Aviation
Security Programme must be certificated by the DfT before they can deliver training.
The DfT has made significant changes to the instructor certification process over the
last 18 months and as part of certification, instructors are now issued with a unique
Certified Instructor Number (CIN). To get a CIN, instructors must:

Provide details and evidence of competence for each of the aviation

security syllabuses which they plan to deliver training from1; and
Have successfully completed a Level 3 Award in Education and
Training or equivalent;2 and
Have successfully completed a valid background check in line with
EU regulations.

Applications for or questions about obtaining CIN numbers can be directed to the
CAA at the following address: [Link]@[Link].

Changes to instructor listings

In the past separate listings for certified instructors for the training of Aircrew and
Ground Security Operatives/Supervisors, Aviation Security Managers, Cargo
(Regulated Agents and Known Consignors), In-flight supplies, and GSAT were
shown on this webpage. Some of those lists covered all instructors, some only
covered those who had requested their details be published. Now, all UK certified
instructors whose details have been verified and given a Certified Instructor Number
(CIN) will be listed with the following information displayed: name; CIN number; the

1 General Security Awareness Training (GSAT) is excluded from this any certification also
allows the instructor to deliver training from the GSAT syllabus

syllabus(es) which the instructor is certificated to deliver. Please note that no contact
or company details will be displayed.

Updated versions of the list will be published at the beginning of every month.
Alterations will not be made to the published list until the next scheduled update but
any instructors whose details are missing or incorrect should contact us at the e-mail
address below in the interim period, to get their details added for when the next
update is published: [Link]@[Link].

Due to breadth of requirement for GSAT, persons or training entities may be given
recognition of competence to deliver a GSAT course whilst not being certificated
aviation security instructors. Information on those who have recognition of
competence to deliver GSAT training can be obtained from the CAA.

List of certificated instructors

The draft list of certificated instructors can be found at: [Link]/CAP1170.

Changes to instructor certification 1 September 2015

On the 1st September 2015 the Level 3 Award in Education and Training became the
baseline standard in instructional techniques for all aviation security instructors. This
applies to anyone wanting to attend any of the instructors courses provided by the
CAA or applying for DfT certification. Please see our archive page for more detailed
information about the change to the process and how it applies.

warning assessment.

Given the changes to the package, which was last updated in 2014, we strongly
encourage all threat assessors to review the latest material.

This training aid is only available to approved organisations and companies formally
in receipt of directions under the UK National Aviation Security Programme (NASP),
i.e. an airline, airport, listed cargo agent or in-flight supplies company. It is
recommended that all threat assessors receive recurrent training on a regular basis.

Chapter 3

Aircrew instructors course

Mandatory for UK airlines and their agents.

The aim of the four day course is to provide aircrew aviation security instructors with
the necessary information to enable them to train flight and cabin crews on aviation
security. This will enable them to instruct staff on the appropriate measures to be
taken to minimise the consequences of security incidents.

Please note that this course focuses on aviation security only and does not deliver
any training in instructional techniques. Before attending this course, delegates are
expected to have successfully completed:

Level 3 Award in Education and Training or equivalent;3

A valid background check in line with EU regulations.

On completion of the course candidates will be provided with a copy of the UK

Aircrew Security Training syllabus.

Due to the high demand for this course, applications will be prioritised with priority
given to Instructors who will then go on to deliver training in accordance with the UK
National Aviation Security Programme (NASP). For this reason, we ask that
applications are sponsored by the Security Manager of a directed party. Applications
will be accepted from applicants who will not be delivering training in accordance
with the NASP only when a course is undersubscribed.

Course cost
There is no charge for this course. However delegates will need to pay for their
travel, subsistence and accommodation.

3 A list of approved qualifications is available on request and applications cannot be accepted if

the applicant cannot provide evidence to meet this requirement.

ICAO courses

A specialised agency of the United Nations, the International Civil Aviation

Organization (ICAO) was created in 1944 to promote the safe and orderly
development of international civil aviation throughout the world. It sets standards and
regulations necessary for aviation safety, security, efficiency and regularity, as well
as for aviation environmental protection. ICAO serves as the forum for cooperation in
all fields of civil aviation among its 190 member states.

The network of Aviation Security Training Centres (ASTC) has been extended to
include Redline as the 23rd centre worldwide. A yearly ASTC directors meeting is
organised to ensure effective communication between the Centres and ICAO.
During this meeting best practices are exchanged and contacts are made and
maintained to ensure that further cooperation.

Besides the delivery of the ICAO sponsored training activities, ASTCs are also
required to develop and deliver a yearly programme of regional aviation security
courses adapted to the regional needs.

For more information on ASTC Doncaster courses please e-mail

Chapter 7

Aviation security managers training

This mandatory training is aimed at security managers employed by airports, airlines

and their agents and in-flight supplies undertakings and secure clean contractors,
who have direct managerial responsibilities for security personnel carrying out
aviation security duties. Managers will be provided with information to enable them to
understand the aims and objectives of the aviation security organisation; the threat to
civil aviation and risks to its security and to be able to implement current security
policies and procedures outlined in the relevant airport or airline security program.

Whilst in the past provision of both initial and recurrent managers training was
limited to providers specifically approved by the DfT, since February 2011 anyone
who has successfully completed an initial security managers course is entitled to
provide this training (subject to meeting the other requirements for instructors set out
in EU regulation and certification by the DfT). Recurrent training must be delivered
within 36 months of Initial Training.

Additionally, those attending this course in order to obtain certification to deliver

ground security training will still need to apply through the CAA to DfT for this
certification. Any such requests should be sent to: [Link]@[Link].

Chapter 12

National x-ray competency test

The purpose of the national x-ray competency test (NXCT) is to enforce a minimum,
uniform standard of competence for screeners using x-ray/EDS equipment to screen
items for carriage by air by ensuring that all trainees prove that they have the
necessary skills to be effective at the x-ray screening task before they work in the
operational environment. Separate tests exist for cabin baggage, cargo and hold
baggage screeners.

Cabin baggage NXCT

Anyone employed in the screening of cabin baggage using x-ray or EDS equipment
must be in possession of a valid cabin baggage NXCT certificate. Thereafter the
cabin baggage NXCT may continue to be used to meet the 6 monthly recurrent
training testing requirements. It is a mandatory requirement that it is re-passed at
least every 13 months. The cabin baggage NXCT should take about one hour to
complete and will usually be initially taken as part of induction training.

If you are interested in becoming accredited to deliver the cabin baggage NXCT, you
will need to meet the cabin baggage NXCT accreditation criteria.

Hold baggage NXCT

The new HBS NXCT is now ready for implementation. Anyone screening hold
baggage by x-ray or EDS equipment must pass the HBS NXCT by 31.10.10.
Thereafter the HBS NXCT may continue to be used to meet the 6 monthly recurrent
training testing requirement. It is a mandatory requirement that it is re-passed at
least every 13 months.

The hold baggage NXCT should take about one hour to complete and will usually be
initially taken as part of induction training.

If you are interested in becoming accredited to deliver the hold baggage NXCT, you
will need to meet the hold baggage NXCT accreditation criteria.

For those already accredited to deliver the cabin baggage or cargo NXCT, and listed
on the CAA website, who wish to deliver the HBS NXCT please request the new test
disks from [Link]@[Link].

Persons wishing to deliver the new test who are not already an accredited NXCT
manager should e-mail at [Link]@[Link] with details of how they
will comply with the accreditation criteria.
