Our services

Consultancy service for airlines and AOCs

We streamline the integration of a Pilot Peer Support Programme for your organisation, ensuring a seamless setup from inception to execution. This includes embedding PPSP into key operational manuals (OM-A, OM-D, Compliance & Safety Management), recruitment, and comprehensive training for pilot peers, and introducing the PPSP to all pilots and crews.

We maintain independence from operators, unions, and authorities.

1:1 Peer support for pilots & cabin crews

EASA.CAT.GEN.MPA.215 mandates AOC holders to implement a Pilot Peer Support Programme, ensuring pilot access to mental health support.

Our PPSP offers confidential, peer-to-peer psychological support. Our services include a network of aviation-experienced mental health experts. With strict confidentiality and professional oversight, we provide swift, supportive pathways back to the cockpit.

Pilot peer support courses

Peer pilots must undergo initial and recurrent training to qualify for the role of a peer.

At NaviMinds, we provide both initial (3 days) and recurrent (1 day) training for peer pilots, designed for pilots and other aviation professionals within our PPS programme, but are open to peers from any operator. These courses ensure peer pilots are fully equipped to fulfil their supportive roles effectively.

What is a Pilot Peer Support Programme?

Since February 14th, 2021, EASA regulations require every European AOC holder to implement a Pilot Peer Support Programme (PPSP). This initiative started after the 2015 Germanwings tragedy and aims to enhance mental health support in the aviation industry.

The PPSP offers confidential and empathetic assistance to pilots dealing with mental health or stress issues through a network of peer pilots. These peers are colleagues trained in empathetic listening and counselling, knowledgeable about company policies, and equipped to provide meaningful support. The program also includes access to Mental Health Professionals (MHPs) for comprehensive care.
