TRI/SFI Refresher Seminar

Overview

The TRI/SFI Refresher Seminar is an EASA-compliant instructor refresher designed to support the revalidation of your current TRI(A) or SFI(A) privileges. EASA requires instructors to remain familiar with latest developments in instructional methods, training concepts, human factors, CRM, and changes within the regulatory environment. Instructor revalidation must therefore include a refresher seminar delivered by an EASA-approved ATO and conducted by suitably qualified personnel.

This seminar fulfils the refresher component required for revalidating an EASA TRI(A) or SFI(A) and is structured in accordance with modern competency-based training principles and industry best practice. The session is delivered online via Zoom, allowing instructors worldwide to join without travel.
