Competence Standards for Aeronautical Meteorological Personnel
19/04/23 All information was sourced http://www.caem.wmo.int/moodle/
ICAO Annex 3 Para 2.1.5 states:
‘Each Contracting State shall ensure that the designated MET authority complies with the requirements of the WMO in respect of qualifications and training of MET personnel providing services for international air navigation.’
AMP Competence and Qualification requirements

Competence requirements defined in• WMO No. 49 Technical Regulations
– WMO AMP competence Standards are now included in WMO-No.49 Technical Regulations, Volume I
Qualification requirements for AMF only defined in
• Volume I of WMO-No.49 WMO No. 1083 Manual on the Implementation of Education
and Training Standards in Meteorology and Hydrology provides further guidance

Aeronautical Meteorological ForecasterAeronautical Meteorological Forecaster
1. Analyse and monitor continuously the weather situation
2. Forecast aeronautical meteorological phenomena and parameters
3. Warn of hazardous phenomena4. Ensure the quality of meteorological
information and services5. Communicate meteorological information to
internal and external users

2nd level Competencies
Developed by the CAeM Expert Team on Education and Training and contain:•For each top-level competence there are:
– Competence description– Performance criteria
•Allows for regional variations (e.g. range of weather phenomena, regional regulations and communications technology)•Identifies background knowledge and skills (e.g. meteorology, standards and procedures, and user requirements)

Second level competence description
Provides broad plain language outline
E.g. Forecast aeronautical meteorological phenomena
and parameters Forecasts of meteorological parameters and
phenomena are prepared and issued in accordance with documented requirements,
priorities and deadlines

Second level competence performance criteria
Outlines broad performance criteria e.g. Forecast aeronautical meteorological phenomena and
parametersa.Forecast the following weather parameters: temperature and humidity, wind, .....b.Ensure that forecasts are prepared and issued in accordance with ICAO Annex 3, WMO No.49 Vol.2, regional and national formats and technical.....c.Ensure that forecasts of weather parameters and phenomena are consistent (spatially and temporally) across boundaries of the area of responsibility as far as practicable..... 19/04/23 All information was sourced

Competence Details
National CompetenciesUse examples of the second level to
adapt the top-level competencies to suit the national situation
19/04/23 All information was sourced http://www.caem.wmo.int/moodle/
Third levelThe critical levelAt this level you adapt the global competence standards to the
national conditions and requirements related to • the area and airspace of responsibility
• the impact of meteorological phenomena and parameters on aviation operations
• aviation user requirements, international regulations, local procedures and priorities
• Capabilities of the meteorological service provider
These are the national competencies and will be the basis of the national assessment
Goal of Competence Assessments
• To demonstrate that Aeronautical Meteorological Personnel (AMP) are competent.
• Not perfection; rather, it is to document the assessment and to have processes in place to identify deficiencies to ensure ongoing improvement.
• Every assessment system will have deficiencies which will need to be documented and addressed.

What is Competence Assessment ?
All information was sourced http://www.caem.wmo.int/moodle/ 19/04/23
Moving from:
« Tell me what you know »
This is knowledge and traditionally related to qualifications
Moving to
« Show me what you can do »
This is about job performance and competence
Toolkit for Aeronautical Meteorological Personnel
Developed by the CAeM Task Team on the Competence Assessment Toolkit The toolkit contains guidance on:•Experiential questions•Test questions•Direct observation•Classroom or paper simulation•Case study

Unable to demonstrate conformance with the competence Standards by 1 Dec 2013
• A non-compliance issue could be raised against the associated ICAO requirement– ICAO Annex 3 Paragraph 2.1.5 - Each Contracting State shall ensure
that the designated meteorological authority complies with the requirements of the World Meteorological Organization in respect of qualifications and training of meteorological personnel providing service for international air navigation.
– Note: Full compliance must be demonstrated by December 1st, 2016

What support is available?• WMO-CAeM Expert Team
– endorse that “what you say that you do” meets requirements, support QMS processes and; identify opportunities for improvement or deficiencies. NOTE: WMO can not verify that you actually do what you say that you do (very important – WMO does not certify)
