Overview
Key Features of a Training Management System (TMS) -
Talon’s “ETA”
Key Features of a Resource Maintenance Management
System (RMS) –Talon’s “RMS”
Key Features of a Safety Reporting System – Talon’s “SMART”
Increasing Importance of Management Systems
Trends in Training Management System Requirements
What is a TMS?
Software application to manage all elements of a
student’s training and training program requirements
Curriculum is central part of the system
Set rules for executing the training curriculum
Resource requirements
Instructor/Student Currencies/Qualifications
Allowable repeats
Grading Standards
Scheduling versus training management
Integrate all training program elements
Importance of a TMS
Paper-based training management Inefficient
Error prone
Record keeping is problematic and time consuming
Minimal connection between scheduling and training
Interaction with Electronic Management Systems
better prepare graduates for the Airline Environment
as similar tools will be used to manage daily
operations.

Report data collection
Safety surveys
Basic investigation management
General Concern
Most data fields are
user-defined
including whether
responses are
required.
Safety Survey
Survey Questions
are user defined,
including answer
types.
Incident Reporting
Data fields in
red indicate

responses
are required.
Management Trends
Airlines and other operations that hire our graduates are
relying more on electronic management tools.
Systems such as ETA, RMS and SMART prepare students for
the electronic management culture.
Increasing Flight School Competition
Schools must become more efficient and student training
more effective
International Customers
Want electronic record keeping and web access to monitor
key aspects of the Operation.
Regulatory Agencies Shifting to Electronic
Summary
