Which resource do MAIs use as the baseline to create unit-specific RAWs for training?

• A. MACE baseline RAWs.
• B. Student feedback.
• C. Safety audits.
• D. Instructor handbooks.

Answer: (A)

The baseline used to create unit-specific RAWs comes from the MACE baseline RAWs. These provide the standardized structure, criteria, and templates that all units adapt to their local context, ensuring consistency in objectives, assessment, and scenario format across training sites. Instructors then tailor these baseline materials to their unit’s environment, equipment, and participants, preserving the core standard while making it fit locally. Other resources—student feedback, safety audits, and instructor handbooks—play important roles in improvement, safety checks, and day-to-day guidance, but they don’t serve as the official baseline from which unit-specific RAWs are derived.
