#1 - From Buzzword to Blueprint: Understanding the CBTA Philosophy

Описание: In this first episode, host Bryan Roseveare and CBTA/EBT expert Cédric Coffignal tackle aviation's most talked-about acronym: CBTA (Competency-Based Training and Assessment). They cut through the confusion to explain why CBTA represents a fundamental philosophy shift, not just a new label for old training, and establish the groundwork for the series ahead.

During this foundational conversation, we unpack:
👉 The key philosophy shift behind CBTA: moving from endless task repetition to mastering core competencies
👉 Why CBTA makes “airmanship” assessment more objective and consistent for instructors
👉 How CBTA, EBT, and the KSA model connect - and what those acronyms really mean
👉 Why the shift is driven by safety data and the increasing complexity of modern aviation

Coming Next: The Three Pillars of CBTA
We'll break down course design, teaching & learning methodology, and assessment frameworks, and why aligning all three is essential.
