AME Guide Grand Rounds – June 2025 Session

Jul 4, 2025

The FAA Aerospace Medicine Grand Rounds for June 2025, focuses on the new Designee Management System (DMS) for Aviation Medical Examiners (AMEs). The session outlines the transition from the Designee Registration System (DRS) to DMS, streamlining AME designation management and training registration.

Leah Olson presents the new DMS features, including a user-friendly interface with a left-side navigation panel, course enrollment options, and training history tracking. Key updates include automatic suspension for overdue training, a transcript feature replacing CME certificates, and a simplified course search function. The system also supports invitation-only courses, waitlisting, and on-site pass requirements for non-U.S. AMEs, with a 30-day enrollment deadline for security processing.

The session emphasizes accessing DMS via designee.faa.gov, troubleshooting through the FAA helpdesk, and submitting AME Guide improvement suggestions to [email protected].
