The Human Factors Training Program assists repair stations in designing and implementing their own training on this subject. The program follows the requirements outlined in the FAA's Flight Standards Handbook Bulletin for Airworthiness entitled "Guidance for Evaluation and Acceptance of Maintenance Human Factors Training Programs" (.pdf).

The Bulletin explains that while human factors training is not a requirement of the CFRs, it is highly recommended. More importantly, however, if you are seeking or hold an EASA part 145 certification, the MIP-G requires human factors to be included in your FAA-approved training program.
