November 15-19, 2021.- Under the coordination of COCESNA and its Central American Agency for Aviation Safety (ACSA), within the framework of the EU-LAC-APP Project and with the support of EASA; It was possible to deliver the “ECCAIRs” tool workshop with the participation of the State Safety Programs (SSP), Aviation Accident and Incident Investigation units (AIG) of the COCESNA Member States and our Regional Investigation Management of Aviation Accidents (GRIAA). This workshop reinforces the SSP and AIG dependencies of the COCESNA Member States on the systems for the collection and processing of safety information (Safety data collection and processing systems SDCPS); through the use and implementation of the ECCAIRs computer tool. The objective of the workshop was to provide theoretical and practical knowledge on the use of the ECCAIRS tool in the State’s safety event notification systems, covering the complete cycle of report management starting with the capture, coding, risk allocation, search and finally the exploitation of information.
These types of workshops help to strengthen the Member States in their daily activities for Operational Safety Management and their responsibilities as signatories to the Chicago Convention, which is a commitment of COCESNA, to continue promoting and coordinating this type of training through of the Cooperation Projects that the Corporation has entered into with different organizations. Likewise, the support received from the Directors of the Civil Aviation Authorities of the Region has been crucial for the success of the activity.
