£125£1,900

Our courses will help you to thrive in your Aviation English Language Tests (EALTS) which you will need if you want to pursue or maintain a career in aviation. With a wide range available, we have something to prepare every individual. Whether you’re looking to refresh your knowledge of the exam or require longer language education, our qualified and experienced English language teachers have the expertise to help you build confidence and achieve your highest score.

Exclusively accredited to prepare you for success

About you: As a professional in the aviation industry, you are regularly required to provide evidence of your English language competency. You could be an air traffic controller, commercial flight crew or a pilot and you need to complete your EALTS to meet industry requirements.

The EALTS for non-native English speakers assesses the English language skills of speaking and listening in the context of aviation and aeronautical communications. Both parts will assess your ability to communicate in English, which allows organisations to determine the extent to which their employees can meet the ICAO Language Proficiency Standards required in the aviation industry.

Entry requirements

The EALTS is recommended for qualified and experienced aviation professionals or for those coming to the end of their professional training and require an internationally recognised assessment of their English for Aviation language proficiency.

The EALTS does not assess formulaic radiotelephone phraseology, neither does it assess your operational skills or specific technical knowledge. Although a test of language and not a test of procedure, the EALTS is not recommended for beginner aviation profession trainees or candidates unfamiliar with aviation operations.
You will need access to a laptop or smartphone with a webcam and audio capabilities

The level of teaching, experience and patience from the course providers was absolutely incredible. It was intense, there was a lot to learn in a short space of time, but it was structured to ensure it was taught and consumed at an attainable pace. It was extremely rewarding.
