The academic year has wrapped up at the University of South Australia, where 48 Aerospace Management students used our training software as part of their practical ATC coursework. Thanks to Visual Vectoring’s on-demand simulation capability, students were able not only to complete the 24 hours of scheduled simulation but also to continue practising from home. Some of the most dedicated students logged more than forty hours of realistic surveillance simulation.
Course feedback was strongly positive: over 80% of respondents described the training content as engaging and the simulation environment as suitably challenging. Our analysis also shows a clear trend—students who invested additional time in practice achieved stronger outcomes. It was also interesting to see students report that the experience gave them greater clarity about their personal suitability for ATC training. The simulations helped many confirm their interest and aptitude, while also providing others with the valuable insight that this career path may not be the right fit for them.
We look forward to supporting academic staff as they transition to Adelaide University in the new year. Our thanks go to Paul Lee and Hien Ha for their ongoing support and valuable feedback.
