Training Management Software for Airlines

Training management software for airlines

Waypoint gives airlines a single system for competency-based and evidence-based pilot training across every fleet. Instructors capture assessments on an offline-first iPad; training managers oversee reporting and see fleet-wide competency analytics on the desktop — all aligned to EASA, UK CAA, ICAO and GCC requirements.

The challenge for airline training departments

Airlines run high volumes of LPC, OPC, type-rating, line-check and recurrent events across multiple fleets and bases, and every one must be assessed consistently and recorded defensibly. Doing that on spreadsheets and paper makes standardisation hard, delays data, and turns audits into fire drills. Airlines need software that scales across fleets and bases while keeping assessment consistent.

How Waypoint helps airlines

Fleet-wide competency analytics — a heatmap of strengths and weaknesses across fleets and bases so training managers can direct evidence-based training where it matters.
Instructor standardisation — drift analysis flags grading variation between instructors, which is critical at scale.
Offline capture — instructors grade in the simulator and cockpit without depending on connectivity.
Currency forecasting — see who is due and who is about to expire, across the whole pilot body.
Per-fleet frameworks — configure competency frameworks and report templates per fleet and regulator.

Compliance built in

Waypoint models EASA Part-FCL/Part-ORO, UK CAA retained rules and ICAO Doc 9995/9868 competency frameworks, with tamper-evident exports and full audit trails. GCC carriers benefit from the same ICAO-aligned foundation. It is the aviation training management system approach applied at airline scale.

Answers for training teams

What training management software do airlines use for CBTA and EBT?

Airlines use purpose-built aviation training management software such as Waypoint to run competency-based (CBTA) and evidence-based (EBT) training. It captures assessments on iPad, standardises grading across instructors and fleets, and produces regulator-ready reports and fleet-wide competency analytics.

Can Waypoint handle multiple fleets and bases?

Yes. Waypoint supports per-fleet competency frameworks and report templates, and its analytics aggregate competency data across fleets and bases so airline training managers get one consistent view.

Does Waypoint support airline instructor standardisation?

Yes. Waypoint calculates instructor-drift statistics that flag graders marking harder or softer than their peers, which is essential for keeping assessment standardised across a large airline instructor cadre.
