[Rick Rump]

This event is for both new and veteran TRACON controllers to learn sequencing and spacing in the TRACON environment.

Audience
S2 controllers training for their S3.
All S3 and higher rated controllers.

About the Instructor
Bradley Tice is currently a Detroit TRACON controller. He has extensive experience in the en-route and terminal environment and has worked for the FAA since 2015.

Course Overview
he big question now is why should you attend this class? In this master class, we will cover speed control, recognizing and deconflicting ties, stacking procedures, and basic sequencing with vectors to final. Whether you are a veteran approach controller or are just starting to work approach controls, this class will give you some good foundational tools to use as you keep controlling.

Check back on 12/8 as I will be posting which tracon we will be using in the master class. It will be helpful for you to review some basic airspace and procedures prior to attending the class. The more you know the better controller you'll become).

Just a note for everyone, this is going to be our first time using Google Meet so please bare with us. It lacks the flexibility of our previous system, Zoom.
We will have zoom ready in case we encounter issues, but as it only provides for 40 minute meeting lengths we may need to get a little creative.

Have you considered Discord? You can "Go Live" in a server voice channel and share your screen. We used this with a ZOA meeting recently and it worked out alright.

[Taylor Darland]

Super excited for this!

Ryan,
Thanks, never actually thought of Discord. We may utilize that if google hangout fails to give us what we need in lieu of zoom. I will be streaming it for twitch's auto recording purposes too.
