COMPUTER-BASED TRAINING: more than just enhancing X-ray screener performance

COMPUTER-BASED TRAINING: more than just enhancing X-ray screener performance

This podcast from Transport Security International Magazine argues that computer-based training (CBT) has become a valuable tool in aviation security, going beyond simply enhancing X-ray screener performance. The author, Daniel Odido, suggests that CBT can be effectively used to train the entire organisation, including personnel involved in cybersecurity, immigration, and flight operations. He highlights the potential of gamification, particularly for cybersecurity awareness training, and discusses how CBT can be employed to simulate complex situations, evaluate employee aptitude, and provide accessible training across diverse locations. The podcast also emphasises the importance of incorporating non-verbal communication training into CBT programmes to further enhance communication skills among aviation security personnel.
