CIRP Recurrent Training
This training enhances the skills of trained CIRP representatives through interactive practice sessions, building on previous crisis intervention training to help flight crews manage work-related stress and prevent negative impacts on their performance, careers, and well-being.
Course Content
CIRP Recurrent training is for previously trained and current CIRP representatives to further enhance their skills to support their fellow pilots with work-related events. CIRP Recurrent builds on the skills previously learned during Individual and Group Crisis Intervention training. Recurrent training utilizes interactive practice sessions in structured defusing and debriefing techniques. CIRP is designed to help flight crews more effectively deal with the normal reactions to abnormal work events before harmful stress reactions can damage job performance, careers, families, personal life, and health.
