Flight Coordinator / Scheduler - Weather Resources

Flight Coordinator / Scheduler - Weather Resources
This eLearning module provides flight coordinators, dispatchers, and schedulers a comprehensive overview of the weather resources essential to safe and effective flight planning. The course covers accessing, interpreting, and applying key meteorological products such as METARs, TAFs, SIGMETs, AIRMETs, and graphical weather charts.

Learners will explore the impact of various weather phenomena on flight operations, including turbulence, icing, thunderstorms, and low visibility conditions. Emphasis is placed on using FAA-approved and authoritative weather sources to support informed decision-making and enhance preflight planning and enroute monitoring. This module strengthens situational awareness and supports regulatory compliance, making it a critical tool for operational personnel responsible for ensuring safe and efficient flight support.

 

The Federal Aviation Administration requires all personnel involved in operations under Part 135 to receive appropriate training to ensure safety and compliance with aviation regulations. Many flight departments do not use licensed dispatchers, so there is a gap in training between scheduling a trip and comprehending the trip's requirements, crew, and aircraft. Our flight coordinator modules and/or curriculum fill that gap in training. This module can also be part of your Safety Management System to mitigate risk.
FAA regulations emphasize proper training and qualification for personnel involved in flight operations, and IS-BAO/BASC encourages ongoing safety and operational training. Organizations should develop comprehensive training programs for their flight coordinators that are aligned with regulatory standards and industry best practices.
