During the course trainees will learn: aviation law, air traffic management, aircraft, equipment and systems, human factors, professional environment, meteorology, and navigation. Successful completion of this course enables them to progress further onto rating training courses. The Basic ATC course is defined as theoretical and practical training, designed to give trainees a foundation level of knowledge and understanding of the work as an air traffic controller and the complete Air Traffic Management (ATM) system. The ATC initial training provided by FLY LEVEL is made up of: The courses are approved by the Romanian Civil Aeronautical Authority and also by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Republic of Moldova.įly Level is certified as a Training Organization according to European Regulations by the Romanian CAA and by the CAA of the Republic of Moldova in respect with ICAO standards.

Holders of the Student Air Traffic Controller Licenses can apply to appropriate Air Navigation Services Providers as Air Traffic Controllers. ATCO licences are issued by the Civil Aviation Authorities following completion of the appropriate approved initial training courses, examinations and assessments. Initial training leads to the issue of a student air traffic controller licence or to the issue of an additional rating and, if applicable, rating endorsement.Īfter successfully completing the Initial Air Traffic Controller Training (Basic Course + at least 1(one) Rating Course) the candidates can apply for the Student Air Traffic Controller License. The objective of initial training is to prepare an ab initio for training at an air traffic control (ATC) unit. They are typically individuals who are able to endure large amounts of stress, and they are able to concentrate when there are a lot of things happening around them. Those who become air traffic controllers have excellent decision-making, problem solving, communication, and multi-tasking skills. Air traffic controllers must be able to effectively perform different duties for different airplanes at the same time, and they must be able to do so without compromising the quality of their work. From that moment, we became the first private Approved Training Organisation for Air Traffic Controllers in Romania.Īir traffic controllers are people that are trained to coordinate the safe, efficient and orderly movement of aircraft on the ground, at airports and within an assigned airspace. FLY LEVEL started to train Air Traffic Controllers in 2012, by launching the first initial air traffic controller training course.
