Services
The steep GmbH has developed a training concept based on the guidelines of the EU Regulation 965/2012 and the requirements for ramp inspection specified therein (section ARO.RAMP). Through our training programmes, the ramp inspectors are enabled to carry out their inspection tasks on civil aircraft.
steep Virtual Classroom Training – Enhanced Communication and Flexibility
With its Virtual Classroom Training (VCT) steep offers a solution that ideally combines the advantages of classroom training and mobile web technology. We use training concepts developed specifically for VCT. In addition, our trainers are qualified to conduct a learning goal-oriented VCT. VCT facilitates the consistent implementation of pre-structured learning concepts and the alignment of training results with personnel and business objectives.
Background and Certification
In the European Union and its member states, aviation safety is regulated by the European Regulation 965/2012. It specifies technical requirements and administrative procedures in the field of civil aviation. This also includes ramp inspections on aircraft from other countries as well as their flight crews according to the currently applicable international (ICAO) as well as European (EASA) safety requirements.
The steep GmbH has been an approved SAFA Training Organisation since April of 2014. We successfully completed re-certification as Ramp Inspection Training Organisation (RITO) according to the new European Regulations with effect to December 9th, 2014.
