The Monitoring of Changes in ATM/ANS Part 1 course builds on the knowledge provided by the Management and Oversight of Changes in ATM/ANS course (SAF-CHG-Intro). The course covers all aspects of the safety monitoring of changes in operations. It addresses questions relating to:

• the maintenance/updating of safety cases and/or safety support cases;
• the follow-up of system behaviour/specifications and safety support requirements during operations for non-ATSPs;
• the follow-up of safety criteria (objectives) and safety requirements during operations for ATSPs; and
• the migration/move to a unit safety dashboard/case.

The course is consistent with Regulation No. 2017/373 (laying down common requirements for service and the oversight in air traffic management/air navigation services and other air traffic management network functions) and its relevant Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) and Guidance Material (GM).
Note: This course does not cover safety survey aspects which may be useful in the context of the monitoring of changes. Please refer to the SAF-SAS-1 course for more information.

Depending on the interest shown (a survey will be conducted at the end of each SAF-CHG-MC-1 course session), a follow-up course or workshop (Part 3) may be organised at a later stage, which will provide participants with an opportunity to present their experience in the monitoring of changes in ATM/ANS and/or in the maintenance/updating of safety (support) cases, and to obtain feedback from the course instructors and other participants.
