Beyond Level 4 for ATC is an 80 hour online aviation English training course designed specifically for air traffic controllers which includes personalised assessment and feedback by fully trained aviation English Language instructors. It is a cost effective training solution which actively develops language proficiency beyond ICAO’s level 4, resulting in extended periods between tests.

Beyond Level 4 also provides training for Controllers who have achieved ICAO level 5, to ensure they maintain their English proficiency between tests.

Beyond Level 4 includes:

  • over 200 engaging learning activities, across eight units, each based on a different safety-related topics specifically for Controllers including: - Separation - Co-ordination - Systems Technology - Situational Awareness - Weather - Aircraft Unserviceabilities - Onboard Incidents - Human Factors.
  • course materials based on authentic flight scenarios, that make use of radar simulations and interactive work-based role-plays to develop the six ICAO skill areas: pronunciation, structure, vocabulary, fluency, comprehension and interactions
  • individual monitoring of course progress by both assessors and participants through performance reports and personal review of recorded speech samples. This allows participants to receive customised language support and feedback on the six core skill areas identified by ICAO
  • flexible delivery, with no full-time class commitments, or disruption to work schedules or training.
