The first FFPLUM exam centres get ready

As the DSAC and the FFPLUM finalise the path towards delegation of the microlight theory exam, the first exam centres are getting ready…

Eleven FFPLUM affiliated organisations were chosen a few months ago to support the start of the project. These organisations are representative of the federal landscape and took part in defining and implementing our procedures.

They are now getting ready to operate as an “FFPLUM exam centre” in the second half of 2021. This mainly involves:

  • Organising their organisation according to the specification
  • Proposing exam session calendars
  • Getting to grips with the procedures for welcoming candidates and running the exam
  • Running the first exam sessions and providing feedback
