The school I am working with is an approved school under the NAA, national airworthiness authority. The approval was awarded under part 147, (equivalent to EASA 147) and the curriculum are as per Part 66.
Some of the topic covered in the briefing were:
1. Linking the approval to ICAO.
2. Role of the ATO (approved training school) in the country.
3. Brief on part 147 and part 66
4. The MTOE - Maintenance Training Organisation Exposition.
5. Guides to be a Good auditee.
Malaysia is one of the contracting states, meaning that we had signed the agreement to comply to the regulations formulated by ICAO. The set of regulations are organised into annexes. There are a total of 18 annexes, the part about personal licensing is in annex 1.
As ICAO is not a regulatory authority, the regulations issued have to be changed into law by individual country. The regulations are enforced through the country's legal system. Beside ICAO, there are other bodies that monitor the aviation operation in this country.
USOAP - is the safety oversight audit program conducted by ICAO. The detail is given in this site (jan-2014) .. http://www2.icao.int/en/usoap/Pages/default.aspx
FAA, the aviation authority of USA also monitors the aviation safety through the program known as IASA. Sample of the result of the audits are given below...
EU does not have similar program, but rely of inputs from third parties to regulate the safety matters of other countries. Airlines from "unsafe" countries may be banned from flying to Europe.
