<p>Under an FAA draft order, the Designee Management Policy (Draft Change 1) would transition from the Designee Registration System to the Designee Management System (DMS) and would align Order 8000.95 with the DMS tool workflows. The draft would revise several procedural descriptions to better match DMS workflows, including updates to digital signatures and automation for registering, enrolling, tracking, and recording designee training completions. Additionally, Draft Change 1 would revise the Designated Pilot Examiner (DPE), Specialty Aircraft Examiner (SAE), and Administrative Pilot Examiner Designee policy to update the documentation of training, require designees to submit training certificates through the DMS, and establish suspension protocols for incomplete training, while clarifying training terminology and categories. The draft would also change the algorithm for the frequency of direct observation oversight intervals required of FAA Flight Standards managing specialists. Comments on the draft are due by Jan. 23, 2026.</p>
