Auditor Training
ADR.OPS.B.011 – Compliance Auditing for Aviation Authorities
Target group: Inspectors and auditors from aviation authorities conducting compliance audits under EASA ADR.OPS.B.011.
Why this training?
As of May 24, 2025, EASA mandates that aerodromes must have effective and verifiable procedures in place for the removal of disabled aircraft. Authorities are responsible for assessing whether aerodrome operators meet these requirements. This training equips auditors with the structure, tools, and practical insights to perform these audits with confidence, legal accuracy, and operational relevance.
✅ This training also meets the training requirement defined under ADR.AR.B.005 (Management System), ensuring your audit team is properly trained to fulfill its oversight responsibilities under EASA regulations.
Key topics include:
-
Introduction to ADR.OPS.B.011 – regulatory background and audit objectives
-
Structured audit planning: scope, risk-based approach, stakeholder involvement
-
Audit methods: documentation review, interviews, on-site assessments
-
Practical session: simulating a complete audit cycle including findings and recommendations
-
Digital tools: using app2air for audit documentation, checklists, and traceability
Your benefits:
✔️ Realistic audit simulations in small groups
✔️ Clear guidance on assessing compliance with ADR.OPS.B.011
✔️ Templates for audit reports, findings, and risk matrices
✔️ Delivered by experts with decades of experience in regulatory oversight and aircraft recovery
