| CAMC National Standing Trade Advisory Committees | | | National Standing Trade Advisory Committees (NSTACs) write and update the text of the National Occupational Standards (OSs), logbooks and curricula for selected occupations in the aviation and aerospace industry. NSTACs also provide advice on the use and validity of these publications to ensure that they continue to meet the requirements of the aviation and aerospace industry. The documents are published by CAMC in both of Canada’s official languages but the content is provided by industry representatives through the NSTACs. CAMC currently facilitates 11 NSTACs, in total comprising 64 industry professionals and subject-matter experts. In all, 34 corporations, and labour, military, government and training organizations have representation on NSTACs. Each committee, using member expertise with emerging or obsolete technology and processes, advises CAMC on how to amend and update the OSs. The Occupational Standards are the template for the accompanying logbooks and curricula, which together allow the certification of technicians and the accreditation of training programs. The following occupations have an associated NSTAC committee: - Aircraft Gas Turbine Repair and Overhaul Technician
- Aircraft Interior Technician
- Aircraft Maintenance Technician
- Aircraft Structures Technician
- Aircraft Non-Destructive Inspection Technician
- Aviation Machinist
